RPCL - Reverse Polish Configuration (and Control) Language

June 28, 2025

RPCL #

RPCL is an absolute minimalistic configuration and control language, initially designed to act as a CLI for daemon-like background processes and networking applications.

RPCL is an acronym for Reverse Polish Configuration (and Control) Language.

It is working stack-oriented in reverse polish notation and therefore borrows some control words from FORTH.

RPCL offers some control structures and has the ability to define compound words - however, the scope and purpose of RPCL remains to configure and control something (and not to program).
