Hey Christian, do you think it would be possible to add a button on the VDM
Job list window that allows you to insert the path of a .bat file to run as
a job?

Occasionally its useful to perform some operations between jobs, such as
moving/deleting/renaming files, and it could be very easily achieved this
way.

Also, if VDM could set some environment variable (%VDMJOBNUM%) batch scripts
could use this to identify what job number they were being run under (incase
the same batch file was run multiple times) and perhaps a variable
%LASTJOBSTATUS% that could indicate whether or not the last job completed
successfully.

The batch script itself could set a variable %VDMCMD% with some values
before it finishes to indicate to VDM how to proceed, e.g. it could instruct
VDM to continue processing jobs or halt processing for some reason.
