Hi all,

here's the problem. Quite a while ago I downloaded the source for an
Algol 68 compiler from Charles Lindsey's site. I'm not a great expert in
porting software, but while studying it I found out it can only be
recompiled with the Amsterdam Compiler Kit. (You can imagine what I
thought when it seemed that ACK would become availlable). Now, the first
ever programming language I ever learned was Algol 68, and I would
really like to use it again. So, is there anyone who would be willing to
take a look at the sources and see if it can be made to work on minix?
And, ofcourse, is there anyone who would be willing to make it work on
minix?
I know, it will probably take a lot of time, so please I'm not asking as
a personal favour, but also because I think Algol 68 would add to the
minix system.
Anyway, I'll mail the sources if anyone is interested.

Bye, Paul.
