Nod, would be cool to allow various scripting contexts, as a scripting
environment that uses the various runtimes, kind of like ms does to allow
js, vbs, ps etc for asp, or wsh.

I like js, and think it is about my fav language though.. also, defining
classes is different, in js it is done by declaring a variable's property to
a function designed as a class. See below for example.. Most people don't
know that JS can be used this way, as well as calling other functions, or
assigning functions as properties.

JS is actually a pretty complete language, you need to have objects for the
run-time context (Synchronet), but it's really cool.

-------------
function MCAlert(inName,inValue,inMore) {
   alert(inName + ": " + inValue);
}

function MyClass(inName,inValue) {
 this.name = inName;
 this.value = inValue;
 this.alert = new Function("inMore","return
MCAlert(this.name,this.value,inMore)");
}

var arrMC_Info = new Array()
arrMC_Info[0] = new MyClass("location","phoenix")

//now you can reference
for (var i=0; i<arrMC_Info.length; i++) {
   //print(arrMC_Info[i].name)
   //print(arrMC_Info[i].value)
}
