Apple Computer's OSA language, with English, French & Japanese dialects. The language is somewhat similar to HyperTalk, and very different than traditional programming languages. The best description I can think of is "English-like". Like English, AppleScript is easy to get into, but some find it difficult to master. AppleScript is an object-oriented language, with inheritance and delegation.

Apple Computer's scripting language. A very easy to read and nearly like a natural language tool to tell the computer to accomplish a set of tasks.
A text language that can be used to control the visual interface of the Macintosh. It essentially says things like "Open that folder and double click on Adobe Photoshop to start it up. Then open the file named 'Pete's Dog's Picture.'" architecture Computer scientists use the word "architecture" to describe the high-level, strategic planning of a system. A computer architect may decide, for instance, that a new system should come with three multiplier circuits but not four after analyzing the sequence of arithmetic operations that a computer will likely be called upon to execute. If there are often three multiplications that could be done concurrently, then installing three multiplier circuits would increase efficiency. Adding a fourth, however, would be a waste of effort if there were few occasions to use it. In most cases, the term "computer architect" applies only to hardware engineers. All sufficiently complicated software projects, however, have an architect who makes the initial design decisions. 1448
