Any suggestions for an easy to embed scripting language, for the target task of simple debugger scripting and evaluation?I'm not enthusiastic about embedding Lua again. But I'm not sure what else is easy to embed

@foone php?(I have no idea on feasibility. But curious if it would meet the criteria.)

@foone I always planned to embed Jinx (https://jamesboer.github.io/Jinx ) into an application, but so far, always halfway through, one realizes that making bindings (typically: for Python) and scripting the application as library instead would be the more sensible usage pattern. Maybe it's right for your use case. It looks mostly like simplified Python keyword-wise, maybe a bit BASIC-y, and has things like solid callback support (which sounds like smth. valuable for debuggers). Next toot: minimal example

@foone it could be worth just adding WebAssembly runtime like: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtimeThen you can use anything that can be compiled to WASM. But depending on requirements, it could require adding WASI layer and that could be, errrr, trickyAfter seeing how @whitequark ported LLVM and FPGA stuff to run in a **browser** I’m seriously considering this path for my next project

@foone luau (note the U !) is a lua evolution that's pretty good.I've also wanted to try Starlark in anger for a while -- it's python-esque without classes, and very easy to embed.Finally, there's easy-to-use WASM runtimes. Then you can write your script in "whatever."
