Microsoft® “Roslyn” CTP

I just learned about "Roslyn" from Microsoft. It works out that it gives you very detailed ability to write out scripts that gives your software the ability to write it's own code.

Traditionally, compilers are black boxes – source code goes in one end and object files or assemblies come out the other end. The Roslyn project changes that model by opening up the Visual Basic and C# compilers as APIs. These APIs allow tools and end-users to share in the wealth of information the compilers have about code. The Roslyn CTP previews the next generation of language object models for code generation, analysis, and refactoring, and the upcoming support for scripting and interactive use of VB and C#.
