I can only agree to this statement!
Me, a not-programmer, began to dig into nasal a few months ago and was able to
make things which wasn't there in FGFS yet. It is indeed a big adavantage of
Nasal that it is quite easy to understand and don't need to be compiled.Often
Nasal is indeed used as work-around- but quite often exactly this leads to
implementation as hardcode. (mouse-accleration)
