I have meaning to post something about F-Script here for while...

 

F-Script is a lightweight open-source scripting layer specifically designed for the Mac OS X object system (i.e. Cocoa). F-Script provides scripting and interactive access to Cocoa frameworks and custom Objective-C objects. It aims to be a useful and fun tool for both beginners and experts, allowing interactively exploring, testing and using Cocoa-based objects and frameworks.

 

Based on Smalltalk, F-Script provides a pure object-oriented environment that leverage Mac OS X technologies and includes significant innovations, like a high-level model for object manipulation and the most terrific object browser on earth! F-Script has been developed from scratch for the Objective-C object model. It is highly integrated with Cocoa and optimized for native access.

 

F-Script is used in various fields including finance, astrophysics, biology, music, game development, software debugging, artificial intelligence etc. It can be used as a stand-alone application that dynamically loads your Objective-C classes and enables you to access them either interactively or using scripts. It can also be easily embedded into your own applications.

While F-Script by itself is prettty cool, what is really neat is using is with Cocoa applications. That is where F-Script Anywhere comes in:
