Re: World menu

The Etoys4OLPC document describes modifications for XO laptops and Sugar,
but does not explain what Etoys was originally designed to do. As I
understand it, the idea is to have an environment in which objects can be
constructed graphically and scripted fairly extensively, but new object
types cannot be defined, in order to limit possible damage and limit
complexity. But there is clearly more to it than that.
