MS has been working on PowerShell recently - a scripting language thing for windows (lookout autohotkey!). Here's a cool looking tool for working with PowerShell scripts.

Harnessing the Power of Powershell.
Powershell Analyzer is a rich interactive environment for Windows Powershell. Its goal is to be the powershell host of choice for IT professionals and system administrators. It has all the typical editor and IDE functionality that you would expect when working on a modern language, but it focuses on the real time interactive experience as if you were at the console, helping you compose the commands you want to use, and also giving you rich graphical visualization of the results. Powershell may seem to just return text like the average Unix shell, but in reality, it is returning rich self describing Dotnet objects. Powershell Analyzer not only helps you with the INPUT, but also with the output. It shows you the properties of the rich objects that the commands return, as well as specific visualizers to help you interact with output such as XML, HTML, charts, tables, and hierarchical data structures.
