My suggestion is a small language (no DLL/SYS/FUNC/PROC calls, no graphics/sound operations, fixed set of variables) compiled on the fly, for heavy computation needs.

There is the FORTHLIB library, which allows you to code time-critical parts of your program in Forth. Not as fast as fully-compiled code, but faster than interpreted BASIC and a well-known well-documented language. This meets quite a lot of your 'wishlist' I think.

Yep, I saw it smiley

I was a big user of Forth, but - IMHO - it's a bit complex for first time users.
