language
(Or "glue language") A loose term for any language
that is
weakly typed
or
untyped
and has little or no
provision for complex
data structures
. A program in a
scripting language (a "
script
") is often
interpreted
(but
see
Ousterhout's dichotomy
).
Scripts typically interact either with other programs (often
as
glue
) or with a set of functions provided by the
interpreter, as with the
file system
functions provided in a
UNIX shell
and with
Tcl
's
GUI
functions. Prototypical
scripting languages are
AppleScript
,
C Shell
, MSDOS
batchfiles
, and
Tcl
.
