As for which languages, this actually seems like it would be useful for learning any language that has reasonable ways of interacting with IO streams. Off the top of my head:
Ruby, Python, Javascript (node.js), Perl, Java, C#, Scala, Clojure, C, C++, Go, etc.

I can't think of a language that wouldn't work (I'd be very interested if somebody knows one and why it wouldn't work). What the scripting languages give you is simplicity. No need to muss with compilers.
