CScript.exe / wscript.exe
Run a Windows Scripting Host (WSH) script.
'cscript' runs entirely in the command line and is ideal for non-interactive
scripts.
'wscript' has a Windows interface for user interaction.

WSH provides a windows scripting environment with commands that are identical across Win 95 - NT - XP.
WSH is available under Windows 95, and NT4 if Internet Explorer 4 (or above) has been installed. WSH is installed by default on Windows 98, Windows Millenium, Windows 2000 and XP.
The download of WSH version 5.6 (as shipped with XP) fixes a few bugs and adds significantly to the features available in earlier releases.
