You should find this interesting http://terralang.org

Took me a couple reads to figure out what it does. Luajit is the metalanguage for Terra. But, if you want to, you can run a mixture of Lua and Terra at runtime or statically compile to a pure Terra exe or .o with no Lua runtime at all.

that reminds me a bit of lush [http://lush.sourceforge.net/], one of a small handful of languages that i really feel should have made the jump to at least haskell-level popularity.

hn actually had a lush discussion recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9602430
