I too lost (Waterloo) SCRIPT - I was the only user, so the powers that
be canceled the license.  They did however give me a copy of Watcom
GML for the IBM PC, which is also also available for other platforms
(not sure if Unix is one of them). If most of your script stuff uses
GML tags, this program will process them with only a few restrictions.

Watcom is in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada (don't have any other info).
