This isn't a language specific question, but I figure this is as good a
place as any to ask this question:

Does anyone know of any kind of product available (free or otherwise)
where I can basically doodle a quick routine (C# of course) and run it
without having crank up the entire VS.NET IDE (or the SharpDevelop
IDE), create a project and all that hassle and such?

For example, something that looks like notepad, where I enter a
quickie, hit run, and it runs... no visual IDE or anything, just plain
old simple source entry and a run button... heck, it doesn't even have
to save as far as I'm concerned.

Many times, I need to do a one time run of something simple like rename
1,000 files a specific way, that'd only take couple lines of code and a
second or two to run. The expense of having to crank up the IDE,
create a project, folders, etc... is a pain.

Standard disclaimer: At the time I wrote this, I believed it was
non-offensive and in the right newsgroup, so a thousand apologies if
what I said or where I said it offended anyone. I sincerely hope you
can pick up the shattered pieces of your life.

c:\winnt\microsoft.net\framework\v1.1.4322\csc.exe

Your path may vary but the command line compiler will probably suit
your needs.
