You got me thinking. Here are some sample scripts I could then perhaps write:
Example of recursion
to evolve
tell Darwin
create life from null
create animals from life
create mammals from animals
create humans from mammals
create SteveJobs from humans
create {Macintosh,NeXT} from SteveJobs
create self from {Macintosh,NeXT}
end tell
end evolve
Example of coercion
to devolve
global fair play
considering Macintosh
create Win31 from DOS
create Win95 from Win31
end considering
considering OS2
create WinNT
end considering
create Win98 from Win95
considering market domination and ignoring fair play
create {WinME,Win2000} from {Win98,WinNT}
considering {Darwin,MacOSX}
create WinXP from Win2000
end considering
continue market domination
-- note state of fair play at this point
end devolve
