It looks quite different to me. S-Lang is a C-like language, while TPU
looks more like Pascal. You probably have looked at the S-Lang
documentation.

The JED extensions, aka modes, may serve as examples. But they usually
use JED intrinsic functions similar to TPU where you use eve$
procedures. For example, syntax highlighting is done with JED intrinsics.

As with TPU, you can compile your S-Lang extensions.
