Just tried it out - looks nice, and it *almost* works for me...
I'm having problems with this line of the script.

copy C:\cygwin\tmp\*.pdf %1.pdf

With this command, my PDF file is mangled in the process of copying:  only
the first few lines are copied over.  However (say, the PDF file is called
test.pdf, and the destination directory is P:\lily) these commands both
work - the complete PDF file is copied over.

copy C:\cygwin\tmp\test.pdf %1.pdf
copy C:\cygwin\tmp\*.pdf P:\lily

Anyone with more experience of DOS shell gotchas understand why?
