From what I hear, it's a pretty powerful compiler.

But it's the $199 price tag that bothers me.


Then don't use it. In addition it's not portable, it's Windows only. If you think it's basic, it's easy to use -there are a lot of very powerful and expressive cross-platform scripting languages out there for free. Try Tcl/Tk, for instance. If you need something compiled, try Java
