First, my apologies. You sound sincere.
But, in my defense to jump to conclusions and comparisons:
(1) You compared first:
"Windows has so many annoyances that I can only compare it...Bay
Area...OS X...Portland..."
(2) "Unfortunate reasons" can not necessarily be interpreted a

why bother with "powerful batch files" when you can use a real programming
language ?

Perhaps you didn't read my original post? I'm being forced to consider Windowsfor reasons beyond my control. Given that I wanted a decent shell in Windows,I thought I would ask about Python shells because I think Python is a great language,and such a beast would give me the flexibility I want on a

Hey - let's not throw the T word around quite so freely. The OP did

Try 4NT (http://www.jpsoft.com). It is like cmd on steroids. I've
been using it for years and it is the *only* thing that makes powerful

batch file debugging.

The shell that comes with MSys (from the MinGW guys). Is pretty good, although
it does have a bit of a problem with stdout output before a process exits, ie
it will hold back output until the process exits.
As a bonus, the file system is a little more sane, and if you are interested

Hmm. I'm not sure what bothered you about cygwin, but if it has been
awhile it's worth another look. For me it makes windows tolerable, and
even productive.
I'm scared more by your thoughts of transitioning from OS-X to windows.
I've seen a bit of OS-X and am slowly be warmed up to it as an op

Hi Claudio,
I fully agree with you. I already used AutoIt 3 but when I moved to
Linux I wasn't able to find anything similar.
I moved also to Python for its power but also if it is called a
scripting language it doesn't simply interact with graphical
applications. As a last resort I tried DCOP (Des

Search for "CompletionChar" and change it to 9.

What I can point you to is not Python, but embedding it in Python
is a question of executing one line of Python code triggering its
execution.
I think you will be fascinated by its features and ease of use and
how well it is suited to fit into your needs:
