   >     * Why did you choose `CONFIG_INTERPRETERS_` over 
`CONFIG_INTERPRETER_`? I guess due to `nuttx-apps/intepreters` or more existing 
configurations or interpreters was first?
   
   Combination of both the fact that the subdir is called `interpreters` and 
because there were more existing configurations using `CONFIG_INTERPRETERS_*` 
options. Breaks less things that way and is also intuitive.
   
   >     * On FreeBSD we have `lang` ports category 
(https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/tree/main/lang). This seems shorter, 
covers all programming languages not only interpreted ones, and also kinda 
self-explanatory.. maybe we could use this name in NuttX too? :-P
   
   Seems like a good name! I don't want to do that in this PR because it 
involves a breaking change for several more applications, and it seems we're 
tied to `INTERPRETERS` for legacy reasons now.
