Or..

Since you're talking about a Linux computer, this seems like a good
chance to try one of the 1000's of other languages avalable for it.

The Pi Foundation like Python and yes, the "Pi" in the name does refer to
Python, but it's just another Linux system at the end of the day. Python
is just one more language you can use with Linux. There are at least
three different Forths avalable for it. And Cobol, Ada, brainfuck and
who knows what else.. (even BASIC)

I'd suggest not picking a language because it's popular, but picking
one you know how to use - and it seems Forth in this case is just what
the OP wants.
