Projects

Lua

Lua is a powerful, fast, light-weight, embeddable scripting language. Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode for a register-based virtual machine ... [More] , and has automatic memory management with incremental garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. [Less]

Io Language

Io is a small, prototype-based programming language. The ideas in Io are mostly inspired by Smalltalk (all values are objects), Self (prototype-based), NewtonScript (differential inheritance), Act1 (actors and futures for concurrency), LISP (code is a runtime inspectable/modifiable tree) and Lua (small, embeddable).

Pike

Pike is a dynamic programming language with a syntax similar to Java and C. It is simple to learn, does not require long compilation passes and has powerful built-in data types allowing simple and really fast data manipulation.

OpenEuphoria

Euphoria is a powerful but easy-to-learn programming language. It has a simple syntax and structure with consistent rules, and is also easy to read. You can quickly, and with little effort, develop applications, big and small, for Windows, Unix variants (Linux, FreeBSD, ...) and OS X. Euphoria ... [More] was first released as shareware way back in 1993. Nowadays, it is being developed as an open source project that is community driven and maintained. The language has evolved into a sophisticated tool for programmers. Surprising to many, Euphoria is one of the fastest interpreted languages around however for more speed and ease of distribution Euphoria also includes an integrated Euphoria to C translator. [Less]

Open Object Rexx

Open Object Rexx interpreter based on the original IBM Object Rexx product.

Open-source REBOL Can be Achieved

ORCA is an interpreter for a REBOL-like language. The interpreter is a C library so that C/C++ applications can use ORCA as an embedded scripting system. ORCA stands for Open-source Rebol Can be Achieved.

cfunge

cfunge is a fast interpreter (coded in C) for the esoteric language Befunge98. It is standard conforming. cfunge is written to be able to run on any C99 POSIX system.

efunge

efunge is an interpreter for Befunge-98 (an esoteric programming language) coded in Erlang. efunge aims to take advantage of Erlang's unique actor-based concurrency model. There have not yet been any release, but trunk is quite stable.

I Language

I is a free and open source cross-platform programming language designed towards efficiency during development and at runtime. It's framework of libraries allows it to support a wide variety of purposes. It is a dynamically and weakly typed interpreted language with a platform for developing ... [More] applications like Aciqra. It also supports web development through the use of the mod_i extension. [Less]

Smalltalk YX

Smalltalk YX is a Smalltalk-80 implementation. It's highly portable, and runs equally well on 32-bit and 64-bit systems, Mac, Unix, Windows, WinCE, or Solaris. It has an easy-to-use plugin system and is very active.
