I could bet that Processing Units manufacturers (Intel, ATI/AMD, NVidia, ARM,etc.) had built things like this internally before, for years. just to understand better what they are doing.
Can any insider of those companies confirm or deny my conjecture, please?
In my company, I had to do also an automated test suite. I began with batch files, because there were already some very basic scripts done by another developer and I as extending them.
But, the suite needed some more advanced things, like time profiling. Batch files were too bad to do time calculations, even the simplest.
So, I decided to migrate to a scripting language, and I was between Tcl (I already did things with it, even controlling Networking printers through SNMP and PCL) and Python (Never touched it).
Even I like more the Tcl syntax, I decided for Python, because:
- Python has a more active community and is not dying, unlike Tcl
- I could learn Python
- I could get help from some colleagues at my job
- If the thing needs to be maintained, it will is more likely to get people that knows Python than Tcl
- It has some modern developments that Tcl does not have
But, I also had some problems. First Python is now in a phase of deep restructuring, and I was doing it in Python 3 and had lots of problems, mainly because of some extras for Python that are not compatible. After, I discovered a chat Channel whose topic says "It's to early to use Python 3". So I downgraded it and got the job done. So, if you go for Python, I recommend seriously 2.6
And you can also have some Windows things, may be it is why you are reticent of moving out from batches. I used winreg module to access the Windows registry.
The first impression I had when reading this post was:
"The United Kingdom continues its reign in SPAM"
Had it happened to someone else or am I becoming crazy?
Komodo Edit is a free editor you can use,
and you can contribute to Openkomodo - it is a blend of Mozilla platform, Python and some other technologies.
I use it with the Morekomodo plugin, but even without plugins it has lots of functionality, specially for python.
Unless its heavy weight, I prefer everything of this editor over the Notepad++.

What? I always hated Netscape and loved Opera.
And you're not an Opera user, for sure.
My bank account. Really. I can give you the IBAN number in a private message.

I did not know that Opera debugger could open wings and go from Europe to America by air and catch some bugs on there.
Tcl! Tcl! Tcl!
i think http://www.priberam.pt/dlpo should sue Microsoft because site of Priberam already does portuguese verbs conjugation since many years ago.
"Costless" is a preferable expression
