Is is not certain whether just renaming the .CMD to .BAT will help.
However you can try to recompile FreeCOM and modify it to recognise not .BAT files but .CMD files.
Other, maybe simplier approach is to modify COMMAND.COM in hexadecimal editor and replace all occurencies from BAT to CMD.

If you want to run both - BAT files and CMD files you can hexaedit 4DOS shell because it understands .BAT files and .BTM files.
