The most full proof way of solving the .bat file launcher incompatibilities (inconsistent arg handling: #1356, #1371, setuptools script launcher doesn't work on Windows: #1112) on Windows is to include a native .exe launcher Groovy has had one for a while now: http://groovy.codehaus.org/Native+Launcher But JRuby just recently created their own for their 1.4 release: http://github.com/vvs/jruby-launcher Since our .sh/.bat launchers are based off JRuby's, adopting their .exe launcher should probably be pretty straightforward
