Have a look at http://www.inf.fu-berlin.de/~wolff/Algol68.html The
company you have tried to remember was probably OCCL.


It's funny to me that ALGOL68 is still alive. I thought it wasn't. When I
first met ALGOL68 in 1984, I began to love programming languages and
compilers.


I hit this thread and this newsgroup by mere accident. But now I will
continue to watch it.
