Farana,

In theory, Tango as it stands could be used for this kind of thing...  I
mean, it isn't mandatory to have the results of executing a TAF/TML return
HTML.  However, HTTP is the only interface to it right now.  So, in theory,
you could perform scripting using a command-line HTTP client (read:
Browser).

Consider this:

You have a TML file that does just one thing: returns the product name and
version.  That file would look like this

-------------------------------------
<@PRODUCT> v<@VERSION>
-------------------------------------

You could then have a BAT or CMD file go:

-------------------------------------
@ECHO OFF
ECHO The current version of Tango running on this server is:
LYNX -source HTTP://LOCALHOST/ABOUT.TML
-------------------------------------

With Witango v5, the interface to the engine is being separated out, and new
modules could be coded to use the new WISP protocol.  So, a pure Win32
Console application could be created that would mean the above example would
no longer require LYNX to interface to the App. Server.

Hope that makes sense...

Jon

More to my question...
VBscript can be used when creating ASPs (server-side scripting), HTMLs
(client-side scripting in browser) and network administration scripts (on
desktop without a browser).

What about TANGO?

Is TANGO strictly a web language?  Can it be used for network scripting?
