   * **Higher-order aspects**: AspectScript is directly inspired by [[http://www.cs.usask.ca/~cjd032/downloads/AspectScheme/|AspectScheme]], in which aspects, pointcuts, and advices are ﬁrst-class values. Consequently, they can be created and manipulated at runtime. An aspect in AspectScript is a pointcut-advice pair; pointcuts and advices are plain JavaScript functions. This feature allows programmers to use the full power of higher-order programming in AOP.
