Troll Technology (QT) Releases Scripting Language

Posted by timothy on from the words-that-do dept.

OopChugALug writes "Troll Tech last night released a beta of QSA, which stands for QT Scripting Language for Applications. Download here. As a business apps developer for a major financial institution's trading floor, I know the traders will love this. Hopefully, with QSA, I can get rid of Excel, and give the traders Spreadsheet widgets, with the flexibility of a 'VBA-like' scriptability to boot!"

    It's based on ECMAscript, so it's not really learning a whole other language. This was smart on TrollTech's part - no one's interested in learning a whole other language just to interface with pretty widgets. This'll make it very accessible to a lot of developers.

    Should open up some interesting possibilities for KDE, too.
