By building scripting support into your applications, you can provide a high degree of configurability, flexibility and automation control in your applications.
* It allows modification of the application behaviour without needing to update the full application. Just sending a new small script file is sufficient.
* It allows you to create and debug scripts and forms at runtime in an Delphi-like Integrated Development Environment.
* End users can add totally new functionality to an application by binding application logic with COM servers through scripting.
* Different end user specific rules can be put in scripts allowing to maintain a single application for different uses
* And much more ...
Script Studio supports pseudo-compiled scripts, making time critical script routines even faster.
