It is a high-level interpreted programming language in the spirit of Python, Lua, or Javascript. Lox is dynamically typed, has garbage collection and supports functional programming idioms with closures and first-class functions. It also includes a simple class-based object system. Lox is controlled by a read-eval-print loop (REPL). Here is an overview of the Lox language.
It is an educational single-board computer using the ancient Motorola 68008 CPU, designed by Wichit Sirichote, described here. It is mainly intended to learn programming the 68k in machine language. It has no operating system, just a little monitor program and communicates with a terminal (emulator) via RS232. If you want to buy/build one, contact Wichit via his web site.
Lox was designed as a toy language to study the implementation of interpreters, but due to its small size and simplicity it's very well suited as a scripting language for a single board computer.
The Lox68K port also contains several language extensions and native functions to access the Kit peripherals and to integrate machine level coding. I wish I had such a system in the 80ies when learning computing, but had to use stupid BASIC...
For testing and comparison, I also added a few #ifdefs to the source to be able to compile
it as Windows/Linux executables, too.
