EiC

EiC (Extensible interactive C) is a free, pointer-safe, bytecode C interpreter, which has three main modes of operation: (1) interactive mode - via immediate statements - (2) non-interactive mode and (3) scripting mode - for running shell scripts. Because each mode uses the C programming language, it provides a seamless way of moving from one programming task to another.

EiC is suitable as: an aid in teaching C, for fast prototype of new programs and as a research tool -- as it allows the user to quickly interface and call compiled C routines, experiment with user supplied code, standard ISO C and POSIX.1 functions, and all via immediate statements, which are statements that are executed immediately.

EiC has its own built in ISO C preprocessor and its own internal set of house keeping commands.
