As written before, it is possible, but with problems. With Vista also a new powershell was developed also for windows xp, but I don't want to learn another syntax - and as you said not nearly compatible to unix scripts .... but super powerful with objects and classes .... > I would opt for Tcl :).

Tcl is also not commonly used in the Windows world, I think, but if jim is distributed with the plplot source and compiles with most of the compilers used, this should also be okay, I think.
