Thank you all, that's very interesting.
Martin, I've started reading the paper, I like the way you think about what a scripting language should provide ("traceability, error handling and a type system"). But, hold me if I'm wrong, but at no moment in the paper you made you own language? It's a EDSL, not a DSL,
That's correct. We have defined a DSEL, but in my view this is still a DSL; the "E" only refers to a specific way of implementing it.
so I don't see where is the scripting, since the program will always have to be recompiled, won't it?
I may have misunderstood your goals and what you mean by "scripting". Our DSEL is intended to be used for expressing all kinds of scripting tasks. -- Martin
