my guessing: just compare
/opt/openoffice.org/basis3.1/share/Scripts/javascript/HelloWorld/helloworld.js
+ the parcel descriptor you have to (learn how to) write
vs.
Sub Hello_World
ThisComponent.Text.End.String = "Hello World"
End Sub
besides, in Javascript you have to import the classes, query interfaces, ...,
all you have to do in Java; and the Rhino "IDE" is not NetBeans, ..., so I'd
rather prefer scripting in Java instead of in Javascript (can be quite easy,
as explained here
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Scripting_in_Java_with_NetBeans_IDE -
a
little out-dated)
