But a .bat or .sh file is not platform independent and thus not appropriate in the long run IMO.
In this case XML would be the way to go because it is entirely human-readable ascii text and totally platform independent.
If you want me to use XML, it'll cost you even more money than the .BAT, because the retro spin is cute, but the buzzword-compliancy is hip, and that's worth solid money.
Yes I could see that driving me into bankruptcy, since adding pd.bat support involves about one line of text in the .pdrc/pd.bat file, but XML has all those funny angle brackets that are probably about $100 a gram at least.;<
