Hi Bob,

created?
F-Script blocks allow you to write F-Script "subroutines". Blocks can takes
parameters and return a result, they have local variables, and also a few
more interesting capacities (see "bBock closure" in the Smalltalk
literature).

Blocks can be invoked from F-Script code, and also from Objective-C. In
addition, F-Script comes as a framework you can link with your own
applications. This makes it relatively easy to build an "Objective-C" app
for which most of the code is in fact written in F-Script.

F-Script gives you the option of accessing the scripting engine
programmatically. See the FSInterpreter class documentation.
Best,
Phil
