Unfortunately, this is one of the hoops that Windows folks have to
jump through. SVN on Windows only recognizes .exe, .bat and .cmd as
executable file types. If you want to use Perl, Python, etc. you need
to have a BAT or EXE kick off the script, passing the parameters &
return codes/messages through in both directions. If you can build an
EXE to do the whole hook (like you have, David), it's a little easier
to pass info back to the client.
