Short: High-level Programming Language, interpreter+compiler. V9.3 Author: Marc.Espie@ens.fr (Marc Espie (amiga port)) Type: dev/ade Version: 9.3 Requires: requires WB2.04 (V37), ixemul, Architecture: m68k-amigaos Origin: Amiga Development Environment, ftp.ninemoons.com:pub/ade Tested: A3000/25(2M chip, 12M Fast) with AmigOS V40 Language developped at the University of Arizona. Features functions that may fail or return a sequence of results (generators) fully-integrated in a Pascal-like procedural language. Fully dynamic type-checking, high-level string handling (designed by the same people who created Snobol), associative arrays. The amiga port encompasses both the interpreter and the compiler, though the compiler demands huge resources. Work upon graphic support is in progress. Specific amiga functions make it possible to use Icon instead of ARexx to communicate with external programs.
