UIMA's Unix command line utilities are named badly
--------------------------------------------------
Key: UIMA-373
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-373
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Java Framework
Environment: Unix
Reporter: Eddie Epstein
UIMA command line utilities are available in two flavors: commandName.bat for
Windows and commandName.sh for Unix. The Unix world typically does not use an
extension for scripts.
In addition to looking dumb, my real peeve with the .sh extension is how it
complicates writing documentation, saying things like "using the cpeGui shell
script (cpeGui.bat on Windows, cpeGui.sh on Unix)". Dropping .sh would allow
the documentation to just say "using commandName".
