No one remembers that DEC ever did an Algol for the Vax.
Yeah, I don t think DEC did either. I was hoping that there was a third party
implementation, or maybe one in DECUS. After all, there s a Modula2 compiler that
had nothing to do with DEC.
I suspect Google is your friend.
Thanks for mentioning the Algol68RS
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALGOL_68RS
There s a SourceForge project (link in the Wikipedia article) for a translator that
converts Algol68RS to C.

There is also a full Algol68 compiler called algol68g
http://jmvdveer.home.xs4all.nl/algol.html-- but that one is targeted to Intel CPUs. I
suppose you could write a new back end...
