Put a linux partition on your win box and do all this plus lots more via
abicommand :-)
Costs you nothing but the time to learn something new. Actually Linux
installs are really painless easy than install windows and a lot
quicker. Far less reboots required and now product registration stuff.
If you have to lots of routine document stuff writing command-line scripts
are definately the way to go.
Or convince a Win developer to produce a plugin to this. It's not hard at
all.
