I've probably not payed attention in class, so I have to ask: Will Messenger Plus! have script support, or does it already? If it doesn't, but plan to have, could I suggest that Patchou don't create a new script language? There are like 100 different existing ones to choose from, and JavaScript (ECMAScript) is one of the best ones. Really.

JavaScript in the browser (working with the DOM) is possibly not the best way to use it, but in ASP pages it's better, and with an even more decent object model (or framework), it would be brilliant. JavaScript has all the facets you need from a scripting language, it's easy to learn, it's logical, it has a beautiful syntax, and it's widespread and wellknown.

So I urge Patchou to choose JavaScript if the choice isn't already made.
