I also considered that, and finally stopped to do so.
That makes things complicated and makes coding difficult.
If we want other scripting tool, we can do it as a command of "rc".
I love "rc". "rc" is best for me.

Of course js can be embedded in text part of rc as follows:
	some text <!--js ... -> other text
	${ # rc codes follow ..
	.....}
  	text continues

Implementing digest authentication is not difficult.
However, if we want to change owner of running httpd by digest  
authentication,
then we should consider many many problems.

Thanks Skip for your comments.
