ICI is a C-like, high level language originally developed by Tim
Long and placed into the public domain. ICI marries C's expression
syntax, control structures and overall feel, with a dynamic, garbage
collected, object-based, data model.

ICI is typically used as a scripting-like language in the fashion
of Perl, Python, TCL and other such languages.  ICI can be called
from C and the language itself can be extended allowing applications
to provide domain specific functions, types and operators for use
in their ICI programs. Embedding in an application also allows the
application to make use of ICI's efficient object system which
provides many useful facilities.

ICI is in the public domain, there is no copyright on it.
