but it's also very extendable. It's ability to slap on new control structures and DSL's is on par with Lisp. I'd say it's very low level and much higher level than the most languages simultaneously.

yes, that's what i did on the C++ implementation i mentioned. it was for writing the action parts (not the parser etc.) for a text adventure system.

Yeah, that's what I was kind of getting at. It looks like it starts low level, but it seems like it allows effectively an infinite amount of abstraction.
