Yes, euscript.e does exist.  You can get it from:
http://www14.brinkster.com/matthewlewis/projects.html

You can embed it within your application, and then pass Euphoria code to it
to be run.  You can also supply hooks into your application, so that the
script can interact with your program (i.e., call routines, change variable
values).  The idea is that you could create an application similar to those
commercial DBMSes, only the scripting language is just Euphoria.  Some day
I'd like to extend my Euphoria Database Browser to allow creation of
database apps, similar to the way that Access works.
