Yea, they've had that available for some years now.

(Funny sidenote: I was confused by the "Echo off" part of the Subject Line, then my brain snapped: "ECO off"

Echo off
When echo is turned off, the command prompt doesn't appear in the Command Prompt window. To display the command prompt again, type echo on. To prevent all commands in a batch file (including the echo off command) from displaying on the screen, on the first line of the batch file type: Copy. @echo off.
