How about Postscript? (I believe that Postscript was developed as a proprietary language, but it has since become sufficiently Free that there is a Free interpreter that renders Postscript code, and a lot of Free programs generate Postscript code as output.) Stretching (but not too far) "language," how about HTML? Except for toasters, almost every computing device sold these days contains an HTML interpreter, and a great deal of embedded systems create HTML and use HTTP as an administrative interface.
