I think I missed the question that this is an answer to...

You can install cygwin, which will give you a unix-like environment and
the usual multitude of unix shells (with scripting capabilities) as well
as explicit scripting languages (tcl, perl, etc.)  Some of these have
windows versions that operate without the unix environment, but there's
no question in my mind that the set of "little" unix programs give you
important functionality for scripting that would otherwise be difficult
to find in windows environment.
