I meant to say that Graal isn't a protocal that makes GScript independant. Whoops.

It's a coding language, I guess. Misspoke.

Dude, I consider languages to be things that you actually have to understand to pick up. And by understand, I mean the nitty-gritty, core mechanics of the engine and so-forth. Sure, everything boils down to binary, but that's irrelevant. There are just some reasonable boundaries to draw: you can not write an executable Gscript, and you can not make Gscript perform outside of the Graal engine unless you write a program which uses it as a scripting program. It does not sustain itself outside of its environment.
