Description-en: ECMAScript 5 compat. shims for old JavaScript engines (library)
The es5-shim library monkey-patches a JavaScript context to contain
all ECMAScript 5 methods that can be faithfully emulated with a
legacy JavaScript engine.
.
The es5-sham part tries to complete the picture as best as possible, but
for those methods the result is not as close and mostly intends to avoid
runtime errors : in many cases it might just silently fail.
