Re: Why vimscript instead of another language? A philosophical or a technical question?

Hello,

I am just curious about it. I have just been experimenting with it, and it is possible to send the selected range of lines, or even the entire buffer, to an external script. Right? In my case, in python. 
I find python, or even bash, to be more readable and friendly than vimscript. 

What would be the advantage of keeping using vimscript instead of writing plugins in your favourite language? What am I missing?

Cheers,
Jose
