After three tries and three bounces, I decided to punt and post these
additions to Tom Rombouts's (tomr@ashtate) list:
> Compact COBOL,
COMPASS (COMprehensive ASSembler, widely used name for CDC assemblers)
> FLPL, FMS [?], FORC,
FOCAL (FOrmula CALculator, common on DEC machines)
> Speedcoding, SPEEDCODING 3, SPEEDEX,
SPITBOL (Snobol compiler, I don't remember where, but there was also
ICEBOL, another one (did I miss it in your list?))
> Laboratory, T, TABSOL, TACPOL, TALL, TAWK,
TBIL (Tiny Basic Interpreter Language, the inner interpreter of Tom
Pittman's set of Tiny Basics in DDJ)
> TRANSCODE, TRANSIT, TREET, True BASIC, TURING, Turtle, Turbo
TUTOR (Scripting language on PLATO systems from CDC)
And we used a "decision table" language for controlling Pinball
machines for a few years. It was called, naturally, PINBOL :-) No, really,
it included a multi-tasking executive and an interpreter that worked on
data structures "compiled" from condition:action lists.
