I used to like Algol68, and got to play with an implementation called Algol68C
on
a DECSYSTEM-20 in the late 70s. Occasionally I ask if anyone has got the
media for it, I still live in hope. I think there are some other implementations
around, I should make the effort to try one some time.
There was a quite good Algol 68 for the CDC 6000 series. There are also
oddities like an Algol 68 interpreter (not compiler) written in Algol 60.
And there is an open source Algol 68 around today ? algol68g.
I think that is the one I was thinking of. I should give it a go.
