Description: Algol portable compiler and runtime interpreter for MSDOS and Z80 CP/M from RHA (Minisystems) Ltd.
Algol-60 for MSDOS and Z80 CP/M Algol60 compiler and interpreter A compact portable system for MSDOS and CP/M An economic use of resources is achieved by compiling the Algol source into code for a virtual machine, which is implemented in assembly language. The complete system has two compilers and two virtual machines, an integer only subset and the full version. Both compilers are written in the Algol subset, the subset compiler is self compiling. In order to make it as small and fast as possible, the subset virtual machine interpreter has very little error checking. Devoid of floating point, nested procedure declarations, stack checking and a few other things, the subset compiler is ultra lean. The full compiler at 17K bytes is only just larger than the full virtual machine interpreter. The output of the subset compiler is code for the subset virtual machine, but expressed in assembly language. The compilers are one pass and very fast. They use the method of recursive descent.
