ALGOL W is a successor to Algol 60 closely based on A Contribution to the Development of ALGOL by Niklaus Wirth and C. A. R. Hoare. It includes dynamically allocated records, string handling, complex numbers and a standard I/O system.
Awe is a new compiler for the ALGOL W language. It is a complete implementation of the language described in the ALGOL W Language Description, June 1972. Awe should be able to compile code intended for the OS/360 ALGOL W compilers with little or no modification. For details read the Awe manual, awe(1) and awe.mk(7).
The main requirements for compiling Awe are a Unix-like operating system, GCC, Python3, OCaml and Boehm GC. For details read INSTALL and awe(1).
Thank you to: Hendrick Boom, Tony Marsland, Carey Bloodworth, John Boutland and Nicolas Brouard for a great deal of expert advice, encouragement and testing; and the authors of the Algol W Language Description for creating such an unambiguous work.
If you have found this software useful or enlightening, please consider buying one of the late Frank Key's books. Frank kept me sane, somehow.
