moby and wescheme sound like truly amazing ideas full of potential.
It's indeed true that many VMs are being ported to javascript and the
prospect of writing web apps in your favorite language rather than
javascript is sweet.
Just want to point out that I've not been able to evaluate even a
simple expression such as (+ 1 2) in either definitions or
interactions window in IE8: it produces no output. I hate IE as much
as anyone, but it is what comes with most people desktops...
The rest of the javascript interface, complete with syntax highlight
and parens-matching works fine.
sorry for the off-topic in this mailing-list...
