        There's also TCL, which was written specifically with being embedded
in mind.  It's also a stable language, well documented, well supported, and
open source, with many people who can teach it and many resources readily
available for those who wish to learn it.  There are also well-documented
object-oriented extensions which answer the duplication issues, and very
well documented and well understood mechanisms to easily extend the underlying
TCL language for specific programs.

        See http://www.scriptics.com/ for one major entry into TCL cyberspace.
