I have a script that makes a list of all compositions in the project by testing

 if(item.typeName == 'Composition')

A person using the script was having errors and it turned out that the language they are running after effects in would have me write

 if(item.typeName == 'Komposition')

Is there a language independant way to test if an item is a composition?

Like this:

if (item instanceof CompItem)

Brill-Yent! Thanks Dan (again), you are like a scripting/expressions cyborg

typeName differences depending on app.language
