Sounds like you are using Microsoft products. 
If you consider NT, Win2k, VS, and batch files 
"up to the task of full scale production", your 
definition is sadly Microsoft-ized. Cygwin will 
work the same, if not better. Then there is the 
unbelievable advantage of being able to modify 
the source code to work correctly or specifically 
for the task. Did I mention that it is free?

HTH,
Peter
