[cctalk] Re: Try Algol 68 on Windows

Mike Thank you for assembling this information - a very useful resouce; I must find time to play in the sand box. In the list of influences you could meaningfully add VHDL, broadly from the same stable as Ada, and riddled with Algol (68) influences. Even if it suffers from end if etc - why not fi etc ; so much more informative. The Algol68R implementation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALGOL_68-R ran on ICL 1900s and would merit mention / consideration in a survey. Ref 14 is a useful, brief write up. And, the 1900 resurectionists have a simulator to run it.

Here is a link to something I wrote - brief intro to Algol 68's background, and how to run it on Windows - with a toy IDE as well. https://mikeparr.info/algol68.html Mike Parr
