Ni> Yes, the script knows where the menu is on the screen and it knows the

Ni> menu items. And it knows the selected item, which is the one that is
Ni> highlighted with the lightbar.

LK>> I agree somethings in js the code just looks more powerful to me.
LK>> One line of code does several different things. I grew up as a kid
LK>> using BASIc and assembly so baja looks easier to me. The scripts
LK>> themselves look more familiar..

Ni> Yeah, languages that are similar to other languages you already know are
Ni> definitely easier to learn. :)
