S-Lang
The S-Lang programming library is a software library for Unix, Windows, VMS, OS/2, and Mac OS X. It provides routines for embedding an interpreter for the S-Lang scripting language, and components to facilitate the creation of text-based applications.[3] The latter class of functions include routines for constructing and manipulating keymaps, an interactive line-editing facility, and both low- and high-level screen/terminal management functions. It is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. (by hankem)

ChipWits (1984) was programmed in MacFORTH because...
I recently found a little C-like scripting language, S-Lang (aka slang) that is a stack machine that allows some explicit stack manipulation. This almost feels like programming directly in Java VM byte codes or FORTH. Not for the faint of heart.
