don't write your own language!


Other existing extension languages are Scheme (mzscheme is a good
implementation, available from Rice university for free.) and Lua,
the smallest, simplest, fastest non-scheme extension language.


and in case you didn't reread your own post, John the moderator
suggested Python and (ick) Tcl. And I guess (ick) Perl is an option
too. personally, I would choose either Python or Lua, depending on
your needs.
