Singlestep Technologies Announces VNOS Compatibility With Perl, Python, and AppleScript Developers and network administrators can now incorporate new and existing scripts into custom-built VNOS applications Seattle, WA. June 04, 2002. In a newsletter released to their developer community, Singlestep Technologies announced today that Perl, Python, and AppleScript can be integrated into VNOS applications using the VNOS Command Tool Widget. The Command Tool is the interface by which VNOS can communicate with the system shell. With Command Tool developers can run utilities, interact with a shell, run scripts, and launch applications from within VNOS applications. By including scripts for existing processes and systems, developers and network managers can quickly build custom VNOS applications to optimize instead of replace previous work. Through the basic VNOS functions of Aliasing and Cloning (actions that mirror and reuse the Cloned or Aliased Objects' programmed configuration) script results can now be processed through pre-set policies that automatically launch specified events, such as sending an email notification or reconfiguring hardware. a server. "Developers and network managers rely on Perl, Python, and AppleScript to handle routine actions that keep their mission critical systems up and running," says Rick Gregory, General Manager for Products at Singlestep Technologies. �Our customers already have systems in place that meet some of their needs. With VNOS, it is easy to extend those existing programs and processes to handle recurring and routine tasks giving them the exact application they need without wasting previous work." The Command Tool Widget is just one of the 32 Widgets that create the VNOS 1.0 visual programming environment.
