Hm....!
I adore it!
Your first programmig language was probably Algol. :) (or Pascal or
Modula-2, depending upon your vintage).
My vintage is 1978.... So... Ok, you're
probably right with Pascal for me. But to be 100% correct:
Omicron Basic on Atari ST, then GfA-Basic. Then Microsoft QBasic on my 286 notebook. Turbo
Pascal
(and traces of Delphi) followed.
Learned OOP and Java at University (using commandline javac and editing with Emacs).
First C in autumn of 2000 as I remember.
:-)
VHDL in conjunction with the XEmacs VHDL mode is unbeatable!

Philipp
