Installer (programming language)

Installer is a scripting language developed by Sylvan Technical Arts and published by Commodore International for AmigaOS, first released for version 2.1 in 1992.[1] Its grammar is based on the LISP programming language. A compatible re-implementation named InstallerLG is actively developed as of October 2018.[2]
