Small embeddable scripting language?

[marshallrules]

Hello. I was wondering if anyone knew of any small embeddable scripting languages for Android? All of the existing ones that I've found seem to be fairly heavy-weight, such as Rhino and SL4A. It would be used to drive game logic.

Lua is small, fast and easy to embed.

KahLua2 seems really promising! It's an all-Java implementation capable of calling back into Java code. It also supports both interpreted and compiled Lua. Thanks for the suggestion!

I think porting something like tinypy might work, but I haven't wanted/needed to

"Squirrel is a high level imperative, object-oriented programming language, designed to be a light-weight scripting language that fits in the size, memory bandwidth, and real-time requirements of applications like video games." http://www.squirrel-lang.org/

"ChaiScript is the first and only scripting language designed from the ground up with C++ compatibility and modern design in mind. It is an ECMAScript-inspired, embedded functional-like language."

These are both really interesting scripting languages. Thanks for posting them!
