r=me, but I think you can do a bit better here.

> Source/JavaScriptCore/API/JSContext.h:87
> +@param sourceURL A URL for the script's source path and name. Used by debuggers and when reporting exceptions.

I think I would just say "source file" instead of "source path and name". I didn't immediately understand what you meant by "path and name".

I would also say "This parameter is informative only: it does not change the behavior of the script."

I would have done this the other way around, and had -evaluateScript: call -evaluateScript:withURL: passing a null or empty URL. That way, there's only one copy of the string creation, script evaluation, and exception handling code.
