As I know nothing about Algol 68 or its implementations, my only real question is: will this work with any other Algol 68 compilers? Note that the GNU coding standards say that if the program variable is named GA68, then the corresponding -FLAGS variable should be named GA68FLAGS (with CFLAGS, LFLAGS and YFLAGS being historical exceptions to this rule). Probably A68 and A68FLAGS make the most sense though (as if "G" is for "GNU" we probably shouldn't be baking that into portable configure scripts today). Cheers, Nick
