Lua

Mudlet uses Lua! Learning it is really rewarding - take a look at excellent stuff like the Lua tutorial (has an intro+crash course), Learn Lua in 15 mins, Learning Lua the Hard Way (very rewarding), Programming in Lua (official, but might be hard to follow) and various Lua tutorials (simple and easy).
