Snark much, Emmanuel?
And yes, "do shell script" is part of an extension, but it's a bundled
extension. You don't have to go find, download, and install it.
Assuming the Perl and Python modules used by the respective solutions
are also bundled, they're zero-installation solutions. And even if
not bundled, Perl modules can be automatically installed pretty
easily, e.g. do shell script "cpan Some::Module" with privileges.

Oh, that kind of easy. I was thinking the other kind.
