Bex script

Came across this: http://bexscript.sourceforge.net/. From the author of the Bex script:

Bex script is a (yet another) scripting language for the Java platform. It is heavily based on another great scripting language BeanShell.

Bex script comes with a JSR-223 script engine for the language (Bex script engine is written in Bex itself!). I did a quick test with a jrunscript session:

jrunscript  -cp bex-1.0.jar -l bex
bex> x = 10
bex> y = 12
bex> x + y
22
bex> square = |x| { x * x}
bex.Block@26d4f1
bex> square(10)
100
bex> System.exit(0)

BTW, I came across this from:
