==== Description: ====
Multiple Utility, Evaluation and Scripting Language Interface

A C library presenting applications with a uniform interface to several
(hopefully, many) scripting languages, so that the choice of scripting
language is a run-time choice made by the user, rather than a design-time
choice made by the application authors.  It provides a call to get a language
interface structure by name, and members of that structure evaluate strings,
load files, etc, according to common function types.  It also provides
scripting languages with consistent access to an application-provided
parameter setting function intended for compatibility with the GNU C library's
getopt.

The underlying language implementations are all non-proprietary, typically
GPL'ed.

An autoconf-generated configure script determines which languages to build
into the library.

The languages currently supported to some extent are listed in the
`Dependencies' section of this form.




==== Other Software Required: ====
Currently supported:
SIOD (unspecified) http://www.cs.indiana.edu/scheme-repository/imp/siod.html
Lua (MIT) http://www.lua.org/
Tcl (`BSD-style') http://www.tcl.tk/doc/
tcc (LGPL) http://bellard.org/tcc/
Perl (GPL/Artistic) http://www.perl.com/
Python (Python) http://www.python.org/
exec of any program {separate process, not API}
pipe to/from any program {separate process, not API}

and support is planned for
GUILE (LGPL) http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/
SWI Prolog (LPGL) http://www.swi-prolog.org/
Ruby (GPL) http://www.ruby-lang.org/
Octave (GPL) http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/

JavaScript (Mozilla/GPL/LPGL) http://www.mozilla.org/js/spidermonkey/
S-lang (GPL) http://www.s-lang.org/
R (GPL) http://www.r-project.org/



==== Other Comments: ====
I have tried to contact the author of SIOD to clarify the license but he has
never replied.  However, GUILE is apparently a descendant of SIOD and so he is
presumably amenable to it being included in GPL'ed projects, and on this basis
I have ticked the box `My dependencies are compatible with my project
license'.

There are no `media files' (if that means bitmaps etc).
