It seems most BBS sysops are fine with making batch files/shell scripts to do various work for the BBS, but I'm not sure how many BBS sysops would feel about learning a more fully-fledged programming language to write a command shell.  I suppose even Baja might seem intimidating to some new Synchronet sysops.  Every so often, I've seen questions from new Synchronet sysops posted on Dove-Net asking how to change menu behavior etc., and some seem a little apprehensive or confused at first about Baja/JS command shells.
