Active Host Engines
ForthScriptSkeletal implementation of Forth by Mark Hammond. Note that this is most useful as a core for working with Active Scripting implementation; this is most appropriately described as a minimal “Forth-like” language.

HaskellScript
Haskell is one of the best-known “functional programming” languages.

Jscript
Available from Microsoft; comes with any WSH or Internet Explorer install.
LuaScript
Lua is designed as a lightweight, portable scripting language to be used embedded or on its own.

NullScript
As Hugh Brown, the author, puts it, this is “the scripting language about nothing”. It actually serves two useful purposes. It was designed to look at what an active host “says” to a scripting language. The source code itself is a minimalist implementation of the framework for an Active Scripting language.

PerlScript
included with ActiveState’s full Perl install.

Python :thumbup1:
included with the full Python install from ActiveState. ActiveState’s implementation may be diverging a bit from the Python community’s version, though, and the Python community is the best primary source of information.

RubyScript
RubyScript is the Active Scripting version of Ruby, arguably the hottest scripting language in Japan. It has a syntax which will be comfortable for VBScript users, and is seeing heavy use in Europe and the Americas. NASA has begun using Ruby recently for scripting numerically intense applications.

FYI, most of the reference documentation on the Ruby pages comes from users who are native Japanese speakers and have laboriously translated the information into English. The mix of European and Japanese characters and usage may initially be a little off-putting, but don’t let that bother you; if you use Ruby for a while you will begin to see Japanese characters on a page as a sign of elegance and quality. There is full, well-written English documentation here – this is the full text of the book “Programming Ruby”:

TclScript critic’s award :thumbup1:
http://tclscript.sourceforge.net/
This is a minimalist implementation which is dependent on having a full Tcl installed.
VBScript
Available from Microsoft; comes with any WSH or Internet Explorer install.
Known Commercial Packages

Pricing as of January 2003 varies depending on version (US$68-285). A trial version can be downloaded.
Examples of use are somewhat limited in IBM’s distribution, but

PScript (MKS)
Part of the MKS Toolkit; described as a “perl-based web page scripting language”.
ActiveBatch
(Advanced Systems Concepts – WinBatch)
http://www.advsyscon.com/
Details of how it works with Active Scripting hosts are unknown to me.
WSH-Like Scripting
I use “WSH-like” scripting to refer to systems which implement simple COM object access but are self-hosting. These provide interesting avenues for scripters who are used to COM-focused scripting such as that done in WSH to easily exploit current knowledge while moving to another environment. The following languages implement some form of this via COM access.
