just looked at some of the codebase

It looks like assembly....

scriptcode_map = {
   0x00: 'STOP',
   0x01: 'ADD',
   0x02: 'SUB',
   0x03: 'MUL',
   0x04: 'DIV',
   0x05: 'SDIV',
   0x06: 'MOD',
   0x07: 'SMOD',
   0x08: 'EXP',
   0x09: 'NEG',
   0x0a: 'LT',
   0x0b: 'LE',
   0x0c: 'GT',
   0x0d: 'GE',
   0x0e: 'EQ',
   0x0f: 'NOT',
   0x10: 'MYADDRESS',
   0x11: 'TXSENDER',
   0x12: 'TXVALUE',
   0x13: 'TXFEE',
   0x14: 'TXDATAN',
   0x15: 'TXDATA',
   0x16: 'BLK_PREVHASH',
   0x17: 'BLK_COINBASE',
   0x18: 'BLK_TIMESTAMP',
   0x19: 'BLK_NUMBER',
   0x1a: 'BLK_DIFFICULTY',
   0x20: 'SHA256',
   0x21: 'RIPEMD160',
   0x22: 'ECMUL',
   0x23: 'ECADD',
   0x24: 'ECSIGN',
   0x25: 'ECRECOVER',
   0x26: 'ECVALID',
   0x30: 'PUSH',
   0x31: 'POP',
   0x32: 'DUP',
   0x33: 'DUPN',
   0x34: 'SWAP',
   0x35: 'SWAPN',
   0x36: 'LOAD',
   0x37: 'STORE',
   0x40: 'JMP',
   0x41: 'JMPI',
   0x42: 'IND',
   0x50: 'EXTRO',
   0x51: 'BALANCE',
   0x60: 'MKTX',
   0xff: 'SUICIDE'
}

so some one can come along and make a higher level language on to of this....

and looks like your going to be running a local server ala pywallet in a browser to use all of this? Huh

From what I've read they plan to build a higher level language on top of it, but that for now they're going to implement a C-like language. I'm not satisfied they can implement first class functions in any reasonable capacity with their current bytecodes. It's just a bytecode scripting language, just like Bitcoin has, but with arbitrary jumps to support loops which per my other post, opens the door to a lot of problems, which I'm not satisfied they've solved... (yet?)
