Agreed. I think there are some strange syntax quirks ("go to", versus "enter" would be hard to parse into separate tokens because whitespace isn't a token delimiter).
However, the syntax for "variables" is obvious, and the nesting of parenthesis is a really interesting way to create a context for specific variables.
I happen to have a short temper with applescript, because there are some cases where the natural language component seems to "Get in the way." However, at least for the purpose of this example, pegasus_f strikes me as a really interesting thing to consider.
- andreyf 17y agothere are some cases where the natural language component seems to "Get in the way" I guess this is kind of like the uncanny valley [1] of language - if it's too much like natural language, but a little off, it seems much weirder than being an completely unnatural language. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncanny_valley http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncanny_valley
