Hi, does anyone have experience in this subject? I might have to re-  
write a jscript running on a windows platform to something that can  
run under linux. I was thinking of using Ruby but I’m not sure if its  
the right tool for the job. Any thoughts? ideas? the script will have  
to read information passed from something like Oblix or a cookie.
