Hello Gerd,

(some known name (from real life) on the list ...)

I'm not the CLI expert, I only followed the development of it loosely. 
For 2.0 I can only point you to the documentation on the wiki:
http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=CommandLine204.
The CLI in 2.1 got a major refactoring, the documentation for it can be 
found at: http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=CommandLine (could of 
course already be outdated again). The latest documentation for the 
parameters can be found in the file cli.xconf:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/cocoon-2.1/cli.xconf

IIRC you can at least parameter that prevents the mimetype dependent 
file extension replacing, from cli.xconf I guess this parameter is 
confirm-extensions:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/cocoon-2.1/cli.xconf?annotate=1.12#37

But this is about 2.1 and you asked about 2.0 - no chance to update?

And as CLI expert I recommend you Upayavira (hope he is reading it).

Yup. I am reading this!

Cocoon 2.0 is very different to 2.1. 2.1 has developed a lot since.

To explain how 2.0 does it. If you have a page called index.html, it 
will go get the content, and confirm that the content type is in fact 
HTML, and then leave the extension as is. If the content type is 
different, it will append the correct extension for that content type to 
the filename. It will fix all links within the site to match.

This functionality is optional in the 2.1 CLI. And, from 2.1.3, there is 
an Ant task which integrates nicely into Ant build scripts.

Hope this helps.

Regards, Upayavira
