JavaScript is scripting language, heavily used in web browsers. It is also one of the native script languages supported by Windows. This is a interpreter for using *.js files from the Unix shell. Two interpreters are availble, both based on Mozilla's JavaScript engine. The older interpreter is "js", and is written in C. It is the appropriate choice if you want an interpreter for the #! line of a *.js file. (#!/afs/sipb/project/javascript/bin/js) The newer interpreter available here is "rhino", a JavaScript engine written in Java. One of its interesting features is that it allows you to call Java from your *.js scrips. The "doc" folder contains various JavaScript documentation. The Rhino shell is documented at /afs/sipb/project/javascript/doc/rhino/shell.html Jacob Morzinski (June 2004)
