Windows "Monad" Shell Beta 3.1 (for .NET Framework 2.0 RTM) x86

Monday, 27 February 2006 by Michel Roth

Windows "Monad" Shell is a new interactive command-line and task-based scripting technology in Windows that enables administrators to more efficiently and securely automate and control system management tasks on both desktops and servers. "Monad" Shell provides powerful task-based control (via built-in command line tools and utilities) and a powerful scripting language that enables comprehensive scripted control of the Windows operating system and applications. The key features of Monad include:

� Simplified command-based navigation of the operating system (including drives, startup files, and registry).
� Command extensibility that allows administrators to quickly write scripts, customize commands, and author their own shell tools.
� Powerful object manipulation capabilities (objects can be directly manipulated or pipelined to other tools or databases).
� Direct control of system data (without the need to perform error-prone text parsing and object lookup).
� Powerful aliasing and output formatting capabilities.
� Support for existing scripts and command line tools.
