CodeSmith - FREEWARE template-based code generator with ASP.NET style syntax:

"CodeSmith is a FREEWARE template-based code generator that can generate code for any ASCII-based language. CodeSmith templates use a syntax nearly identical to ASP.NET syntax so that creating templates should feel immediately familiar to ASP.NET developers. "

.NET Undocumented: Natural Language in Longhorn

.NET Undocumented: Natural Language in Longhorn

"Longhorn introduced a new namespace called System.NaturalLanguageServices in WinFX, though I believe the name will be shortened to System.NaturalLanguage.

Nice... A good thing to have as part of of the OS...

Pretty cool...
