I am very interested in learning windows shell programming. So…I searched for books on the amazon.com. I see that books on the amazon.com are out of date. Most of books are published before 2005. I googled about it and found many tips and tricks, but not step by step guide.
Where do I get started?
P.S: I am talking about windows shell programming that I do on visual c++. I am not talking about windows shell script.
I would suggest you have a look at Windows Powershell, that allows you to create shell scripts using the .NET framework. There is plenty of documentation online and a there are several books available as well. A good starting point would be Microsoft Script Center.
