I've seen one reference for uBLISS, but I have no idea of the status of Micro-BLISS was a BLISS compiler that ran on the PDP-11. However, it was not at all successful. Given the size of the BLISS compiler much of the optimisations, etc. had to be removed to make it all fit. I don't believe it was actually completed as a project. that one. Was it even usable? Why did DEC not use it internally for the Bliss stuff for PDP-11s? PDP-11 BLISS was either written on a PDP-10 or VAX. The PDP-11 Fortran IV compiler was written in BLISS-11. DECnet was written in the Common BLISS dialect. Tim.
