integrated scripting environment based on node.js.

written from scratch with modern os x 10.6 apis providing maximum os integration while avoiding reinvention of the wheel.

allows editing (although not saving, currently) remote files accessible over http or https.

styling of the editor (not only the syntax highlighting) through regular css 3.

and more awesome features...
