well I don't do that kind of line always, but, I use closures for example
and I can do those in Javascript. What I think cool about javascript is that
it has lots of features I like and I don't have features I don like...
of course xTalk is way better than any of those languages, may they be C,
Pascal or Javascript, just as a proof of Revolution power, I did build a x86
assembler simulator in one night to help me study for an exam.
What I say is that we all know the power of Revolution, but, that doesn't
mean that other languages are all garbage. I do like REBOL, Scheme, Lisp and
Javascript, all languages that are very different from xTalk family of
languages but I like them anyway.
Now, browsers are stuck with Javascript v3. v4 will be better. I'd rather be
stuck with the current incarnation of javascript than with jscript or
vbscript or the first version of javascript.
until the day we control firefox, mozilla, safari, opera and IE, there's no
way we can bundle an xTalk engine with the browsers, but as richard said,
desktop apps beat web apps in anyway.
