[OT] Windows Command Help

[Brian Yennie]

Dan,

I'm all MacOS here, but I did notice a couple of things which might 
help you-

1) You may need the drive name, i.e.:

start "c:\blah\blah\doc.pdf"

2) When inside Rev, you can use the hideConsoleWindows property to hide 
the nasty window (or something close to that, don't have my reference 
handy).
