"AppleScript is a scripting language for the Macintosh. It is an English-like language that has been compared to batch files on PCs, but it is more like UNIX shell scripts in its power and flexibility. Available as an add-on for System 7, and included with System 7 Pro and System 7.5, Applescript lets you write programs that automate and interconnect your other Mac programs and the Finder. Applescript is closely related to Hypertalk, and is very accessible for novices."

"Glyphic Script is a modern, object oriented, language. Glyphic Script has objects, message passing, inheritance and a unified object model. While all these concepts may sound complicated, they actually combine to produce a simple, easy to use and understand system. It is easier than languages like C or Basic because it is very consistent and has only a few concepts to learn."

README:
"The lanugage in Frontier, UserTalk, is an Algol-like language that incorporates bits from C, Pascal, Basic. The editor is a derivative of the editors used for Lisp. The storage system is a breakthru, I think."
