Well if the system is 100% scriptable, there is no part of the system that a
dedicated SysOp couldn't change to suit his tastes.  Also, external modules
would consist of any programs that interacted predictably with the rest of the
system.  IOW, you could write a module to do anything in any language you
liked.

What is an "inetnet" ?  I tried replacing the word with "internet" and the
sentence didn't make much sense then either.  Please explain a little better
what you have in mind!

> i mean, after all its just text right?

Some operating systems (Unix, for example) do not distinguish between 'text'
and 'non-text'.  Everything is just DATA!
