    Strictly speaking, of course, you can use PL/pgSQL from the
    terminal already: just use psql, connect to the database, and
    create and run functions and procedures as much as you like.

    If the question is, "Have there been any efforts to implement a
    PL/pgSQL interpreter without PostgreSQL?", that's a different and
    much more complex problem.  PL/pgSQL uses the PostgreSQL query
    execution machinery to run pretty much anything that is not a
    control structure, and the language is very focused on interacting
    with the database. I doubt it would be worth anyone's time to try
    to build some kind of minimal framework that implements the SPI to
    allow PL/pgSQL to operate without PostgreSQL.


yes

plpgsql cannot exist without Postgres. PL/pgSQL is strongly reduced interpreted Ada language. The gcc compiler supports Ada language.

I found https://bush.sourceforge.net/bushref.html - it is interpret with Ada syntax, but it is better to learn Python - it is easy - with a pretty big library.
Cool, thank you.

free pascal https://www.freepascal.org/ is good compiler and you can write terminal applications too - with Turbo Vision
Too bad, PASCAL is now neglected by most UNIs :(
