I'll try and write a ruby interpreter asap.
Having had a couple of days to ponder, I think writing a Charmonizer interpreter in pure C89 is doable. Then we can junk my prototype Perl version and just maintain one copy.
Charmonizer would remain conceptually intact as a probing pre- preprocessor for C, but instead of requiring a powerful scripting language like Ruby or Perl, all it would need is a compiler and a command environment where that compiler can be invoked via system() from <stdlib.h>.
Before we do that, I'd like to see if we can improve on a couple of the language's aspects. I'll address that in a separate email.
