What is the main difference between Scripting Languages and Programming Languages?
I'd like to know what defines a language as a scripting language compared against other programming languages. Some possible scripting languages might include AutoCad LISP, Linux Bash, DOS Batch, Javascript or ActionScript in Flash.
Where is the distinction made that makes a language a scripting language? Are there a set of clearly define rules to classify it as such?
