I'm fairly certain his question was simply how to switch from a baja shell to a .js one. It seemed like he was unaware that there was a 'default.js' available to switch to. So not really.
You basically told him to find some javascript tutorials, described how javascript is primarily used in web context. Then, gave links on how to familiarize himself with javascript.

Even if he did write or modify his own baja shell, the answer to "How does a non-JS-programmer accomplish this (switching from baja to js shells)" is simply to replace default.src/bin with default.js. Done deal.
Then when one wants to actually modify default.js, theeeeeeen they can go looking for javascript tutorials and the Synchronet javascript reference. But that wasn't part of the original question.
