Scriptomatic (revisited)

  • Article

The Scripting Guys released version 2 of their "Scriptomatic" tool a couple of weeks ago. Don't be put off by the somewhat frivolous name - it has some very true value. One such example I frequently use is for the WQL queries in WMI filters when building Group Policy Objects - this tool saves a lot of effort. The sequel is a completely new. However, this time, it doesn't write just VBScript, it can output in Perl, Python and JScript. Go take a look - you'll be glad you did. It works from Windows 98 right through to Windows 2000 (but you'll need to install WMI 1.5 Core for 98/NT). Oddly though, Windows Server 2003 isn't in the list of supported operating systems for Scriptomatic. I can confirm it works for me under WS2003 so far. Odd!
