Visual Basic Script Interpreter
Run
*.vbs
scripts on your *NIX machine, in a completely libre way!
This is a complete rewrite of
wscript.exe
, for *NIX machines.
The goal is to have it behave exactly like the.exe
version for Windows,
but in a libre and platform-independent way.
The goal is not yet achieved, but feel free to contribute,
just make sure that any contribution & modification you do is completely libre.
Refreshing reminder of what vbs looks like:
Dim x
x = 2
If x > 0 Then
Wscript.Echo "Hello World"
End If
