Re: Windows/Macro Language Info?

Hi Leuko,

to answer your question:

I use mainly JavaScript. It is pretty simple to use and, although it has no
affiliation with Java, the syntax and concepts are similar.

I do use VBScript occasionally, mainly because I find it a bit tiresome to
keep 'translating' code samples from VBScript into JScript.

It really doesn't matter for WSH, as either or both can be freely
interchanged just as they can on the web.

Pete.
