Having used Algol68, then switching to C to discover "*" for manual dereferencing I immediately wanted to be back using A68 again, but alas... Then when I switched to C++ I immediately understood the "Zen" of C++'s "&"... but still wanted to switch back to A68. Was there ever a version with "Objects"... I saw a version with "Areas" but have no idea what an "Area" is. @Albert: Given the domain name "xs4all" in your email address I am sure YOU have spotted: http://www.xs4all.nl/~jmvdveer/algol.html by Marcel Also: I invite you to join one of the below groups (my .sig below) and deposit some of your Algol68 impressions.... There is also a chrestomathy site http://rosettacode.org/wiki/ALGOL_68 where you can pick out an code sample unimplemented in Algol68 and torture test your Algol68 memories. (Be warned: Most of the easy samples are done) Keep in touch NevilleDNZ -- For Algol68-user mailinglist with archives & subscription: * https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/algol68-user To download Linux's Algol68 Compiler, Interpreter & Runtime: * http://sourceforge.net/projects/algol68 Join the linkedin.com's Algol68 group, follow: * http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=2333923 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
