That?s the one.
I?ve been in contact with the two companies that took over various aspects/projects from
RSRE - DSTL and Altran UK - but the enquiries dwindled into silence as have several
requests from universities I knew had the compiler back in the day, including my own
Liverpool.
I haven?t quite lost hope but I?m getting there.

"The compiler was written in ALGOL 68, bootstrapped initially using
the ALGOL 68R compiler."
