An example might be the ALGOL68 compiler. (I stress 'might be', as I haven't checked if that is on my system already. I just know there is 'some good stuff' that I want and which I don't have.) I have had a look on archive.org, but I can't find anything that looks like CDC NOS software tapes. A big part of my difficulty is likely to be that I don't have a list of what was available on controlfreaks.org in order to be able to do a detailed search. I did search archive.org for controlfreaks.org, but all I get is Controlfreaks.orgAuthorized Users Only This site is for the research into historic systems and software made by Control Data Corporation. If you think you can contribute, email to ControlfreaksAdmin <https://web.archive.org/web/20210421192919/mailto:thunter0...@gmail.com> to request a username/password for access to this site. All the content is over in the TWiki <https://web.archive.org/web/20210421192919/http://www.controlfreaks.org/twiki/bin/view/> . When I click on the TWiki link, I get {ScriptUrlPath}/view/TWiki/TWikiRegistration which is not much use. Does anyone have a list of the CDC software that was available from controlfreaks.org?
