I could have sworn it was 'Scottish', because that meant that the language wasn't entirely St.Andrews' fault, but it was nearly twenty years ago... At the time I quite liked it, and did a lot of programming in the SunOS version (the one where they hadn't gotten around to writing the garbage collector). I know better now, of course. Tell me, do you still cringe when you hear the phrase 'void and void are not compatible in this context'?

Aha that's probably wishful thinking I'm afraid. The language seemed very old fashioned to me (features like being able to choose the first index of an array) but I can appreciate it was good for its time. I wrote my own error messages which were hopefully a bit more useful than that :)
