Started out as just a little weekend project but now it's actually turning out to pretty useful. Still have a LOT more code to write (not to mention documentation). I wonder if it could be ported easily to a microcontroller? 
FWIW here's the world's first truly hybrid C/Javascript program ever written:
FWIW here's the world's first truly hybrid C/Javascript program ever written:
JavaScript:
print("Sample Cosi Application")
print("(NOTE: default filename is 'main.js')")
function tick()
{
return clock() / CLOCKS_PER_SEC
}
function wait(delay)
{
var rest = tick() + delay
while(tick() < rest)
continue
}
function print_mechanical(pace, text)
{
srand(time(NULL))
if(pace > 1)
pace = 1 / pace
function put_mechanical(byte)
{
var modulated = pace * (rand() / RAND_MAX)
putchar(byte)
fflush(stdout)
wait(modulated)
}
var combined = "";
for(var idx = 1; idx < arguments.length; ++idx)
combined += arguments[idx]
var bytes = text_to_bytes(combined)
loop(combined, function(idx)
{
put_mechanical(get_byte(bytes, idx))
})
put_mechanical(0xa)
free(bytes)
}
var args = argv_to_text_array()
if(!args.length)
args = [1/4]
var text = file_to_text(script_path())
loop(args, function(idx)
{
var pace = Number(args[idx])
print("*** Script (printed with", pace, "second delays) ***")
print_mechanical(pace, text)
})
