Embedded Language Wars

Yep, like Pascal, but pure pascal is a VERY limited language. It took many extensions (non-standard) to make it useful for anything beyond its intended purpose–teaching structured programming.

I do like REXX, it is a great scripting language, even if it is tainted by its IBM origins…

Now FORTH is a great language, particularly for small systems, but there is a reason that LISP stands for Lost in Stupid Parenthesis…
