I have seen two versions with line by line descriptions, but both were
in C, both were very different from the original (one used LEX/YACC,
one built an AST and generated 8086 code), and the comments were not
in English - one was in Japanese, the other in German. I tried
bablefish, but my connection is so slow, I gave up on it.
I also found several Java versions, but I can't remember how well they
were commented.
There are lots of compiler courses on the net that use pl/0. Have you
tried using any of the search engines, with a search for "pl/0"? I
didn't save the url's of the two compilers mentioned above, but they
came up in the first 200 or so hits on google.
And, as mentioned previously, the author's book does a good job
explaining pl/0 too!
