[Edu-sig] Microsoft's KPL

[Dethe Elza]

I've taken a cursory look at KPL.  It appear very similar to Basic,  
but exposing the .Net libraries.  I guess now that VisualBasic has  
become another syntax for C#, they needed a new Basic for scripting.   
It has top-level functions for playing sounds, getting screen  
information, handling sprites, math, pen (shapes and color).  Kind of  
like combining a subset of DrawBot and PyGame, but backed by .Net  
instead of the Standard Library.
