Javascript for desktop apps?
jacquesm: why not simply embed a web server and connect to the localhost ? That makes your application internet ready as well when the time is right as well as giving the user to connect to your application from other pcs on the same lan.I've built a music management system along these lines and it works quite well. The internet ready part of it causes all kinds of unintended but useful side effects, stuff that I never thought of when building it.
