Seeing as how there has been interest in including an interpreted language with the default software install (such as Python or Perl, etc.), and the fact that they are too big to fit in the built-in flash, I would like to offer up an alternative.
I've been developing a small language called 2e (http://lang2e.sourceforge.net). It is currently fairly functional, and the built-in function library has most of the expected functions for text-based programming. It also includes a function for loading in external function libraries that have support for specific gui environments (i.e., similar to Perl's "use" function). Best of all, the compiled binary comes in at 150k or so (depending on compiler optimizations). If I put together an external library for it that acts as a binder to OpenMoko's gtk environment, then would an alternative language such as 2e be useful? And if there are any requests for the language, I'm willing to taylor it to specific needs (within the scope of the language design). _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
