Visual C++ does not provide nice features such as syntax colouring for many languages other than C++ itself. One of these "poorer relation" languages is VBScript. With the increasing availability and usefulness of VBScript since the original release of Visual Studio 6, it may be quite desirable to use VBScript for purposes such as creating build scripts. However, it can be quite difficult to read yet another programming language without syntax colouring to lend a helping hand. As a result, it may be quite discouraging to new users to dabble with VBScript as part of a Visual C++ project.
