GUI apps in javascript without a browser?

Question

I would like to use javascript to develop general-purpose GUI applications. Initially these are to run on Windows, but I would like them to ultimately be cross-platform.

Answer 1

JScript .NET might be able to do it. It was intended for ASP .NET and .NET may not be cross platform the way you want it. However, more interest might create more development.
