BAScript
BAScript is a simple scripting engine written in Object Pascal you can use to add scripting to your Delphi, Lazarus or Free Pascal applications ("host program") to extend their functionality without the need of recompiling them. The virtual machine defines its own language, called the BAScript language. It is a low-level language, somewhat similar to the Assembler language, which is not intended to be easy to program but easy to execute. So it is recommendable to use other higher level languages and translate them into BAScript language. Package includes two compilers that translates from a higher-level language to the BAScript language. You should note that BAScript is intended to be lightweight, so it has not mechanisms to handle complex data structures or large amounts of data or code. On the other hand, it has less need for memory and resources than other scripting interpreters. If you need more power you may try PascalScript.
