picoc
-----

PicoC is a very small C interpreter for scripting. It was originally written 
as a script language for a UAV's on-board flight system. It's also very 
suitable for other robotic, embedded and non-embedded applications.

The core C source code is around 3500 lines of code. It's not intended to be 
a complete implementation of ISO C but it has all the essentials. When 
compiled it only takes a few k of code space and is also very sparing of 
data space. This means it can work well in small embedded devices. It's also 
a fun example of how to create a very small language implementation while 
still keeping the code readable.

picoc is now feature frozen. Since it's important that it remain small it's 
intended that no more major features will be added from now on. It's been 
tested on x86-32, x86-64, powerpc, arm, ultrasparc, HP-PA and blackfin 
processors and is easy to port to new targets.
