Ugh. Need to learn JS, and need to learn it as a system scripting language. =(
00:49
< Vornicus>
JS isn't that hard itself.
00:49
< Vornicus>
what's this "system scripting language" thing
00:50
< McMartin>
When Windows needs to do things more complicated than a batch file, you command it via, I think, COM objects through a variety of scripting language veneers.

< McMartin>
JavaScript (called JScript, but, I am assured, and by external sources, that this namechange is solely to avoid getting into a trademark pissing match with Oracle) is one of these, and the best documented and therefore the best choice.
00:51
< Derakon>
It's also not a bad language on its own.
00:51
< McMartin>
My alternatives being VBScript and PowerShell, and while PowerShell is the most powerful it also not guaranteed to be installed on all systems.

Also, my internal dialogue here is totally sounding like Yahtzee Croshaw.

Do you know Java?

Ah. Come on... It isn't worse than Perl.

< jeroid>
What about VB?
15:42
< TheWatcher>
I've never been forced to use VB, so I don't really have enough personal experience of it to work up a good bile at it
15:42
< jeroid>
