Thank You. The Diamond. I'm not sure what you're looking for exactly (e.g., general programming?)... But if you're interesting in shell scripting / automation kind of stuff, you might want to check out Windows Script Host: http://msdn.microsoft.com/scripting/ You can write scripts to do all sorts of neat things, e.g., starting applications, sending key strokes to a running application, etc. WSH allows you to write scripts in vbscript or javascript and then you run them from the commandline or from windows.
