About DScript
DScript generates binary files from scripts. The DScript script
languages was designed for maximum convenience and security.
Convenience:
- avoiding avoidable overhead, when entering large amounts of data
- automating generation of repetitive structures
- providing support for common special data structures
Security: define invariants for the given data format, that are
automatically checked by DScript
DScript has the same relation to binary data as a compiler has to
executable code, hence it can be described as a "data-compiler".
