Python scripting via XBMC might be a bit easier. Check out the xbmc site:
and see if they have anything on python scripting and such. I know using pythons has made my modding habit much more enjoyable. _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."

does anybody know where there is a list for batch script commands that i could look at i am trying to create a folder to replace the E:\cache\ after i delete it.
Just a note though, you can delete that folder without recreating it with no problems, you don't have to just empty it. _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide

I actually liked the idea so much I implemented it myself:
<List Text="Empty Cache" Sort="Off" Batch="True">
<Item Action="AskUser" Arg1="Format">Are you sure you want to wipe all the cache files? The system will reboot after the cache is wiped.</Item>
<Item Action="Delete" Arg1="E:\CACHE"></Item>
<Item Action="Format" Arg1="X">Format X Drive</Item>
<Item Action="Format" Arg1="Y">Format Y Drive</Item>
<Item Action="Format" Arg1="Z">Format Z Drive</Item>
<Item Action="Restart"></Item>
</List> _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide

Can you paste the markup that your using?
[EDIT]
I used the following and it worked fine for me:
Code:
<List Text="Empty Cache" Sort="Off" Batch="True">
<Item Action="AskUser" Arg1="Format">Are you sure you want to wipe all the cache files? The system will reboot after the cache is wiped.</Item>
<Item Action="Delete" Arg1="E:\CACHE"></Item>
<Item Action="Format" Arg1="X">Format X Drive</Item>
<Item Action="Format" Arg1="Y">Format Y Drive</Item>
<Item Action="Format" Arg1="Z">Format Z Drive</Item>
<Item Action="Unzip" Arg1="F:\CACHE.zip" Arg2="E:\"></Item>
<Item Action="Restart"></Item>
</List>
