Dear Prototype core team, I like the syntactic idioms of Prototype, particularly the Enumerable module. The methods really help to improve the readability of JavaScript code.
Right now, I am writing a little program in JavaScript which is thought for running in batch mode, i.e. from the command line. I wonder whether it's possible to separate the UI part of Prototype - connected with the browser - from its syntactic core. How much effort would it be? When running cscript prototype.js on my windows machine, I get error because a "window" object is missing. I hoped that replacing the initial "Browser" and "BrowserFeatures" declarations by hashs with all properties set to "false" could solve the problem. But there are more places where the browser environment is expected. How difficult would it be to separate the "core" layer from the "browser-dependent" layer in Prototype? I don't know the mechanism how the final Prototype.js is built from its code parts: Would it be possible to build another product from these parts which only covers the Prototype core?
