Beginning Shell Scripting (Programmer to Programmer) Review by John C. Welch
A minor clarification from one of the authors
It's rather hard to "shell script Windows" without some form of third party add-on. The base Windows command line, as it currently stands, is ill-suited to anything but the most basic of commands, and kicking off WMI scripts, whereas pretty much any Unix system comes standard with a full suite of scripting tools and shells.
This should be changing with Monad in Windows Vista, but for right now, shell scripting in Windows without third party tools is just not going to compare to what you can do with Unix.
