There is already a very nice C interpreter out there you might want to look at

Subject: [antlr-interest] Is this the correct use of ANTLR

Hi all,

I’m trying to create a simple scripting language that looks similar to C but I 
don’t actually need to implement an interpreter.   I just want to convert this 
“ultra-simple C” subset language into basic C and then run it through GCC to 
create an executable.  Is it easier to start with say an ANSI C grammar and cut 
out what I don’t need or actually find a more simple programming language?  I 
really just want mathematical expressions, functions defined within the file, 
if/else if/else, and loops  (while, for, foreach).

My end goal is to be able to take a user’s script file, process it, add the 
required integration fluff and then create a .o I can link into my application.

I’m a total newbie when it comes to this stuff so I apologize in advance for 
the basic question.

Thanks
