I've been wondering, what USB cabalities do most languages have readily available as part of the standart libraries. I'm gonna look that up . . . anyone tried using it?

I don't know of any. I don't think there are any. It'd all be done through third party libraries; C and C++ have libusb, Python has bindings for that libary IIRC, and I'm sure there are others like it.

What are you trying to do with USB?

Most languages do not have any support for any kind of hardware in their standard libraries (reading/writing to the scren, files is not hardware). IIRC libusb is useable in most languages to get usb access on *nix.

I didn't want to use it, I was just looking at a ParallelPort topic and wondered if USB was easy to access, considering USB is pretty much the periphal norm nowadays. Btw, on java.net there are 2 USB libraries, and a tutorial on how to make your own, so, hm.
