Windows Monad
So how about Windows Monad for Vista comming out? there is a free beta download at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/i...splaylang%3den
(Registration Reqired) I was reading /. and there is a multi-page artical to Monad with the syntax etc. http://arstechnica.com/guides/other/msh.ars This shell more closely resembles BASH in some ways and the scripting capabilities are much improved. Let me know what you think. Note: Also requires the beta version of the .NET Framework v2.0 Another interesting tidbit, you can leverage the .NET API with Monad, and this script uses winforms. msh> $window = new-object Windows.Forms.Form $window.text = "This is a Windows form!" $button = new-object Windows.Forms.Button $button.text = "Click me!" $window.controls.add($button) $window.showDialog() |

Thought it was taken off of the things-to-implement list, because it could be dangerous.

Agreed. I've been trying it out, and I like it so far. For more flexible and powerful than cmd.exe or command.com

Why would anyone use it? What'd be better would be C# script or something, though doubtless its already work in progress, but if you're using .NET why not knock out a simple command line program, given Microsoft will make their compiler free if they have any sense. In the meantime I'm content with cygwin for bash/perl/python scripts on windows thank you very much, which also gives you all the stuff in DOS if you need it. Now if only there was a way of using colinux to completely remove the windows kernel...

Nice way to troll an old thread back to the top of a list with a useless post...
