here is the one major point that sold me on kix.

The whole collection of group commands! In WSH this is an extremely complicated process especially if you wanted to emulate kix's INGROUP() command.

Kix isn't used for viruses! (yet...... Don't think for a sec that it couldn't! )

It's small overhead.

Ease of use! Anyone who was taught BASIC, or knows BASIC, can easily pick up kix in a matter of days.
