Question about Windows zip distro

Hi all,

Do we intentionally ship the shell scripts along with the
tomcat-native and commons-daemon-native tarballs in bin for the
Windows distribution?

+++
$ ll apache-tomcat-7.0.73-windows-x64.zip/apache-tomcat-7.0.73/bin/ |
egrep '(tar.gz|sh)$'
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty   21646 Nov  7 23:29 catalina.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty  204944 Nov  7 23:29 commons-daemon-native.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    1922 Nov  7 23:29 configtest.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    7888 Nov  7 23:29 daemon.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    1965 Nov  7 23:29 digest.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    3547 Nov  7 23:29 setclasspath.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    1902 Nov  7 23:29 shutdown.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    1904 Nov  7 23:29 startup.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty  391853 Nov  7 23:29 tomcat-native.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    5024 Nov  7 23:29 tool-wrapper.sh
-rw-r--r--. 1 coty coty    1908 Nov  7 23:29 version.sh
+++

If not, I can amend the build.xml so that it doesn't include them; I
just thought it looks odd (and would save us 631.9K off the zip size).



Thanks,
Coty

Yes.

The only variation is the difference in line-endings.

I believe the intention is to provide users with as much flexibility as
possible (i.e. you can use the .zip on Linux if you really want to)
while making it work out of the box for the more obvious/popular use cases.
