Console apps in C# are really nice to write, actually.
The docs here will get you started.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/452fz12a(VS.80).aspx
The short version is that you create a console type app in Visual Studio.
You can use any classes that you like in the app as per usual. All I/O is
done using the Console class which gets imported for free.
Because you are not supporting a window, your app ends when execution
falls out of the main method just as it would with an old skool C
application.
Hope that helps

commands?

Ok, next silly question...
Since have never really created command line/console applications, am
now just trying to figure out how to get a console application created
in C# to execute command line commands, and then how to get it to
close/exit itsself after operation?
Idea would be to create a slightly trumped up target for something like
a send to shortcut that can do a bit more than your average batch file.
Have looked for simple examples, but am obviously, again, using
incorrect search terms or something - LOL!
TIA
