I can't find such information by google, and I can only make the script compiled but unable to run it. Every time I run the script it will just simply popout 'successful terminate' without doing anything.

There isn't be much difference compared to pascalscript, most things are indeed the compiling are just minor stuff.
Note that currently released Simba has an old Lape with quite a few annoying bugs.

But isn't the Lape run faster? I already get the last version of simba( version number:1000)

The lape in simba 1.00+ compiles slower than the old lape; it's still in early-medium stages of development too afaik.

I don't care the time cost of compiling, but I do care about the memory leak problem and running performance. So did you guys using Lape interpreter to run script?

The improvement in performance is mostly negligible for RS scripting. It's only significant when intensive (mathematical) operations are performed, which is seldom in the context of RS scripts.

Memory leak can be fixed by using wrappers in PS.

Yea, with some kind of Frankenstein Simba build. Worked just fine, not really better or worse than PS for RS. The main plus is cross-platform.

As of yet there are no tutorials based around scripting with lape although it is really similar to PS. So it's not too difficult for one to figure out. Although, the it's still not fully functional with many aspects of the include so it could be a little wait before a tutorial is written.
