Ovation Pro has it's own script language built in, which allows other 
to write add-on applets (like plug-ins). It's similar to C. Take a 
look at:  http://www.dentrassis.com/opro_script/

Sometime ago I wrote a couple of small utilities to help send data to 
Ovation Pro, but more of a way to call and pass data to the scrip 
functions in Ovation Pro or it's applets.
See CallOPro and SendOPro
