Directory of Scripting Resources

Home > Computers > Programming > Languages > Scripting

Scripting languages are expected to have at least these features/traits: 1) Interpreted. 2) Operate from a command line or file. 3) Embeddable within applications. 4) Operate outside multiple applications to glue them together. 5) Easily extendable. 6) Should be easier, simpler, faster to use than more ambitious languages.
