Though I do sort of agree that JavaScript will be a defacto standard,
I don't agree with all of the earlier post.  However, you can embed
JavaScript into you your C/C++ application with the ScriptEase:
Integration SDK.  Which is a JavaScript compatiable interpreter in
an SDK form (see the url in the sig).  Also, JScript.dll is included
in the Window distribution (if you really want to go that route).
