I admit I'd prefer Ruby too... A drawback is that we can forget about
the library and user interface... or, to say it otherwise, it restricts
the choices to rubyqt, but it might be a sensible choice.

Well, it doesn't have 00 neither apparently...

I don't think memory would be a problem, but lua has the qualities of
its drawback (I'm not sure it's the right wording to translate a French

than Ruby I believe...
