/*
 * Script
 * Script provides a simple class which is a simple interface
 * for defining a scripting backend. Each Script object consists
 * of an independant scripting environment.
 *
 * Requirements of Script Object:
 * - Each script object is independant from any other script object.
 * - A script is to be executed upon instantiation.
 * - A initialization and destruction function should be executed in
 *   the script if such a function is defined (the interface should
 *   provide default methods in case they are missing or not needed.)
