If what you're looking for is reading / writting files to the file system and some other goodies as support for XML, there are many options.
Php, as you said, could be a good one if you feel comfortable with it. Php scritps can be run directly from the command line, which makes sense for tasks such as the one you're trying to accomplish. However, as with probable all available options, I think one of the most importants points is what are the requirements for the end user. Using php requires that the php interpreter be correctly installed (I think in Linux this is a fair assumption as I understand php comes with most distributions, but that's not on Windows). Another option could be Python; same as php here (you need the interpreter), except it's possible to compile the Python code to an exe with some tools. (I guess the must be something similar for php, perhaps you could google it). This is the approach followed be the Sepy Editor. You don't need to install Python to run it, as you have an .exe (in Windows), but you can use the python interpreter directly (at least if you have the project's source code). That way you can potentially cover Windows, Linux (where, again, I understand Python comes with most distros) and Mac (don't know about how the Sepy mac version works, but I know it exists). You can check out the SEPY source code and play around with it to get an idea (by the way, I haven't used Python extensively, but it stroke me as a very clean and nice language to work with). Anyway, these are just two options I can think of off the top of my head, but I guess the most important things to consider are a) how confortable you feel with the chosen language / techonology and b) what are the requirements for the end user.
