Overview
Make the following MapGuide server commandline parameter changes:
1) Change the "/" character before the parameter to a "-".
2) Change the "testmode" parameter to "test"
3) Remove the "/t" parameter from the renamed "testmode" parameter.
4) Change the "interactive" parameter to "run".
Motivation
The current commandline parameters for the MapGuide server require the "/" character before the parameter. This is more Windows centric and is actually the same as the Linux path seperator character. The "testmode" and "interactive" parameter name changes are really just for shortening the name for easier entry by the user. The removal of the "/t" extra parameter for the renamed "testmode" ("test") parameter is recommended because it is really not needed. The user can simply specify what specific test they want to run without needing the "/t".
