I'd like to put my 2cents in about scripting on NT.
I use the Windows Scripting Host. It comes with Windows NT and 98.
You can use VBSCRIPT language commands (a.k.a. Visual Basic) all day long,
with minor exceptions.
The command line interface is 'cscript' and the gui is 'wscript'.
Usage: CScript scriptname.extension [option...] [arguments...]
Options:
//B Batch mode: Suppresses script errors and prompts from
displaying
//D Enable Active Debugging
//E:engine Use engine for executing script
//H:CScript Changes the default script host to CScript.exe
//H:WScript Changes the default script host to WScript.exe (default)
//I Interactive mode (default, opposite of //B)
//Job:xxxx Execute a WS job
//Logo Display logo (default)
//Nologo Prevent logo display: No banner will be shown at execution time
//S Save current command line options for this user
//T:nn Time out in seconds: Maximum time a script is permitted to run
//X Execute script in debugger
//U Use Unicode for redirected I/O from the console
Regards,
Larry Chance
