An interpreted programming language that is delivered in the form of a multi-platform C library, although it also ships with a stand-alone interpreter in a shell called "slsh" but that is only provided in source form. Originally developed as the scripting/macro language for the JED text editor and is intended to be similarly embedded into your own C programs but has gained some strong array-based operations since it was originally released. While the structure of the language is somewhat dissimilar to C it has a very similar syntax and supports most C data types making interaction between the interpreter and C and/or C++ code a doodle.

Foreign libraries with S-Lang bindings

LibcURL - Internet URL (WWW, FTP, etc) access - Open Source

Text editors with S-Lang support

JED - Offers a S-Lang mode - Open source

S-Lang related programmer's utilities

Exuberant ctags - Creates index files out of S-Lang source files - Open source
