What is AVSLib?

AVSLib is an extension library for the Avisynth script language. It offers a general-purpose toolkit to Avisynth script developers for enhancing their ability to perform complex linear and non-linear video editing tasks (such as creating timelines, editing and animating clips, etc.) as well as tools to debug scripts, a rich set of functions to handle script variables, new datatypes (arrays and maybe later matrices and dictionaries) and many more.

What makes AVSLib different from other plugins I have found for Avisynth?
