The DMDScript scripting programming language is Digital Mars' implementation of the ECMAScript engine, a.k.a. JavaScript, JScript. More technically, it implements ECMA-262, with extensions to make it compatible with Microsoft JScript, which it can replace in Web browsers. In benchmark tests, it is much faster than JavaScriptTemplate:Citeneeded, and over twice as fast as JScriptTemplate:Citeneeded.

It is useful for ECMAscript enabling browsers, email clients, and any program needing an efficient scripting language.

Two DMDScript versions exist, written in two programming languages. The master version is coded in Digital Mars' D programming language, and another is in [[C++]].

Licensing is dual. Source code is licensed under an open source GNU GPL license, and under commercial licenses for use in closed source products.
