or something else like Tcl ( http://tinytcl.sourceforge.net/ ).
Unlike the others, Tcl at least was originally designed as a scripting
language for embedded systems. It's grown since, so it's nice to see
something that returns it to its roots. Having a claimed 60K footprint
makes it fit much better into the eCos world too. And given other aspects
of eCos are based on Tcl (including CDL which is very much built on Tcl) it
would fit even better.
