I disagree with this when you start trying to make some really cool
functionality for example making web browsing better speed is important.
Just go to some really large pages with jaws and see what happens.  So the
faster you can crunch text the better.  I can't wait to code stuff in lisp
for window eyes cackle.

C++ would definitely be faster.  IL may be slower the first time
executed, since a compilation process occurs then.  Thereafter, IL will
generally be faster than an interpreted language.  For the purpose of
scripting a screen reader, however, I think speed is less important than
other factors.

That's what I've read also Jamal:
Would either IML produced by Visual Studio or Compiled code produced by
something like C++ run faster than a Script on Windows machines?
I have to think Compiled code would be faster and guessing IML would be
faster as well.

Windows installations typically include support for running VBScript and
JScript programs as part of the Windows Script Host.

Hi,
What compiler or interpreter is a Windows computer likely to have out of the
box? I ask because anyone who would want to make WindowEyes scripts would
want to possibly distribute them to others.

Thanks.
