Correction to Lars.Ericson at CMU-10a:

Apollo's system software is NOT in FORTRAN.  Apollo used a few of the
RATFOR Software Tools programs for text manipulation & processing, but the
*majority of the system* (i.e, the Aegis nucleus, system utilities,
superviser code, and system I/O) is in Pascal.  What's more it is a clear,
modularly designed system, and is reasonably documented as well.  [The
University of Utah has a source agreement with Apollo, so I know this for a
fact].
