No, sorry. I've answered as to why I won't implement such a thing a couple of times before. The run-down is that in order to make such a thing really useful to a lot of people (instead of only a handfew or even only one: you) it would have to be really, really powerful requiring really, really a lot of work. I don't have that kind of time, nor do I have the motivation to do that as there are several scripting languages (shells like bash, zsh, maybe even the Windows Power Shell; scripting languages like Python, Ruby, Perl, Lua) available on all platforms for power users like yourself that are way more flexible and not that hard to learn.
