I'm guessing since Java's bytecode form is written to disk, and then
that is executed, instead of just one step, and since it is not a true
system binary like C/C++, it was put into a separate category.  Does
anyone know if any of the other scripting languages are compiled into
bytecode and then executed like perl, or do they use some other method?
