Tried it but most of the links are Shell programming tutorials. Perhaps my terminology is wrong. What would you call it, shell compiler ?

Well, shell scripts are not compiled and I guess what you are looking for is shell scripting languages. Perl is one scripting language which you can download it from www.perl.org

What I am looking for is a software that make writing scripts easy. For example I can write HTML code in either notepad or visual studio. But with visual studio, i get different colors and other features that help me read and writes code easily. Another example would be SQL pretty printer for SQL code

Well, you can write scripting language in any editor which you prefer like VI, emac or Ultraedit if you are on windows platform.
