I would think that you could call Python using declares. But you'd still only be able to pass strings between Rb and Python.

Yes, that's the problem. The thing is, RBScript is compiled and executed, whereas everything else must be interpreted by parsing strings, which means scanning the text, which means invariarable and utter lack of real processing speed (as compared to RBScript). I think the parser demo I put out a few weeks ago would be among the fastest alternative solutions, but still, don't do anything else but strings, and only then if you need to do stuff you can't in RBScript or it'd quickly become an excercise in futility. I tend to avoid declares. I use only one declare in my Metropolis project and I would avoid that one if I could.

I agree with one of the earlier posters that the only alternative that would stand any chance would be a plugin based one, but it shouldn't just be an interpreter plugin.
