Sorry for the off-topic post but I could not help but raise a hand since 
I am someone who actually likes to run zope on my dev box this way.

I just append "pause" to the end of the "runzope.bat" so the box stays 
open when something goes wrong. Perhaps this could be made default? A 
small but significant change, that would be, hrrrm? :-P
