Is there a group for the WSH?

The Usenet mechanism distributes
<news:microsoft.public.scripting.wsh>
<news:microsoft.public.scripting.vbscript>
<news:microsoft.public.scripting.jscript>
and you can ask Google Groups about the sub-hierarchy.

Unfortunately my new Verizon News server does not carry them. But there's
always google groups.

Both news:news.eternal-september.org (ex-Motzarella) and
news:nntp.aioe.org carry them, and are free.


I did not realize there was a difference. I found this resource interesting
and helpful:
http://commandwindows.com/command1.htm

You might also look via my sig.

I was also amazed at the many commands that are available, and there is a
link to the Microsoft XP Pro documentation for command line reference. But
there is still no equivalent to prompt() for accepting user input text.

Googling for what I considered obvious yesterday, I found a solution; I
cannot find it today. It involved a subroutine that wrote an explicit
new window containing suitable HTML and maybe code.
