DoScript – DSL for file automation with natural language syntax

Natural-language keywords plus implicit file metadata in loops make common file tasks unexpectedly readable, and the built-in --dry-run and explicit error reporting show a sensible safety-first design. It isn't revolutionary — PowerShell and dozens of RPA/DSL tools exist — but as a compact, distributable exe for teams that loathe terse shell one-liners it’s a practical, usable effort; the main gaps are cross-platform clarity and a larger ecosystem of libraries/examples.
