Servers no longer need to be mapped to a drive letter, and dirhtml can
index UNC's such as: \\some-server\folder\folder.

Update as of July 19th:

All builds from non-mapped servers, from batch files or not, seem to
be working.

The only remaining issue is that if a .bat/.vbs file is saved to a
server and run remotely, it does not presently work. In fact, .bat
files don't even come close to working, as they won't even attempt to
process UNC file references.

The last bug just fell. Now, bat/vbs files should always work,
whether they are on a server or not.

The only trick relates to creating bat/vbs files to build framed
sites. In order to ensure that all drive/server references are
correct, the dirhtml "Recursive" page must have been previously
activated during that session. If it has not been activated, the
references will be simply (for example) "left_frame.txt" instead of "D:
\folder\left_frame.txt." Alternately, the three frame scripts can be
copied to the same location as the bat/vbs file.

It is recommended to use vbs files instead of batch files whenever
possible, as .bat files cannot reference UNC file locations.
