Why *.SAT?

Weird. It looks like it should work. Maybe try the same pattern as in the flag line:
exec "c:\\ftn\\toss.cmd" *.su? *.mo? *.tu? *.we? *.th? *.fr? *.sa? *.pkt *.SU? *.MO? *.TU? *.WE? *.TH? *.FR? *.SA?
or just omit the path, in case there is a problem in pattern matching the "\\":
exec "c:\\ftn\\toss.cmd" *.[mwtfs][oehrau][0-9a-zA-Z]

What is the unixroot=x: line good for?
