Julia sounds very interesting. Although it appears it doesn't have any 
support for graphics, which would be a major issue for the use I currently 
have in mind, after browsing through the docs section I was left with the 
impression that it does solve a significant number of problems.  It's 
definitely worth looking into.


Thanks for the suggestion, Jussi.
