Yeah, that's why it was great.
For me, ARexx and Datatypes still stand out. A standard scripting language with standard interfaces into all your desktop software is a magnificent tool, and one that common desktop OSes still don't have.
Datatypes meant that every program could open relevant data; again, something you can't rely on even 30 years later on your desktop OS.
