The first thing you need to know about Agena is that it is a procedural programming language. Next up, you need to know that this language provides support for multiple platforms. And last but not least, you need to know that Agena is free. So if you want a free, cross-platform, procedural programming language that will help you perform a variety of tasks, you’re very well advised to go get Agena.

As mentioned above, Agena is available for multiple platforms. Installers are available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, OS/2, eComStation, Solaris, Haiku, DOS, and Raspberry Pi.
Focusing on Windows alone, it must be said that Agena is available as an installer and as a portable version.

A setup wizard will help you install Agena on your Windows PC. Said wizard will have you pick one of three installation types: Full, Standard, Custom. The Full Installation covers the following: core files, AgenaEdit, documentation, set environment variable AGENAPATH, append path to Agena binary to PATH, desktop shortcut, plus packages, misc.

Agena can be used for scientific, linguistic and educational purposes. It can also be used for scripting purposes. If you are familiar with the Lua programming language, then I have to tell you that Agena is based on the ANSI C source code of Lua.
AgenaEdit is a simple editor that is bundled with the Agena procedural programming language. It features an integrated Agena environment and features syntax highlighting.

Code samples are available on Agena’s official website. Check them out to see how the syntax looks. Or get Agena for free and get started with the programming language.

What’s left to say other than the fact that Agena is a very nice procedural programming language that can be used for lots of purposes.

Pros

Agena is available for multiple platforms: Windows, Mac, Linux, and more. Agena for Windows is available as an installer and as a portable version. You can pick one of three installation types: Full, Standard, Custom. Agena is a versatile procedural programming language. Code samples are available online. There’s a handy editor that features syntax highlighting. Agena is free.

Cons

None that I could think of.
