These are not scripting languages, but
shell-scripting languages (except PHP).
Or rather Linux-specific languages.
All are open source.

Before J, for scripting it is missing JavaScript,
VBScript, AppleScript.

Why would J be a scripting language: because it's
interpreted? then how about Lisp, Basic, Prolog;
dynamically typed? then in a group with SmallTalk,
ML, etc.
