Hi,

	We (my tiny little group, not DEC) are looking for something to
	replace C as our major internal prototyping language. Somehow
	C doesn't seem like a really high level language to us anymore...


	So, we have some requirements:
		source level debugging (sorry C++)
		must be ported soon to our soon to be announced not-a-vax.
		must link with C
		must ahndle floating point reasonably
	
	and some wishes
		run under ultrix on the vax too.
		object oriented or polymorphic
		strong typing
		nifty environment
		run more than 1/2 as fast as C
	
	and some background
		the main thing we are working on is 3D graphics, so
		numbers are important (prolog is not a language I would
		choose to write a ray tracer in).
    
    So if anybody can send me information on this sort of thing, I
    would appreciate it, and will summarize to the net if I get
    reasonable response.

    I would actually enjoy hearing about languages that don't meet all
    of the requirements if they are sufficiently nifty. Miranda is an
    example of something that doesn't meet our needs that we are
    considering purchasing just because we love it so.

Thank you for your time and patience
