I've started a VB Script version for the Windows Scripting Host. Right now
I'm in the proof of concept stage. I've got something that opens a file,
spawns an editor, gets the process id, and can PUT a file to Zope. (works
with SSL too)

I haven't figured out how to check if a process has exited.

I would like some suggestions on how to handle the config file, I'll
probably use the same format as the Python version, but I would also like
to take advantage of the Content-type registry Windows has.

I'll keep the list up to date on my progress.
