I have a bunch of scripts that I use for various things.

- One which stops IIS app pools before a deployment (30 of them). I wanted to stop them all in parallel but found this far more difficult than executing a list of Tasks in c#. So I now just run c# console app to do it

- one which runs msdeploy commands against a web server and had many issues dealing with passing parameters down to msdeploy. I can't quite recall but I think it was either quotes or spaces related.

The ISE as it's called is very very basic. Not what I'd expect from MS. I'd like a full debugger.

There also seems to be a potential security risk of having editable text file scripts on a server Vs a compiled exe.
