Allen Jensen) Newsgroups: comp.unix.questions Subject: Re: Bliss Compiler wanted Summary: I thought BLISS was what DEC wrote VMS in - is this the same BLISS ? (a block-structured language - sort of a pascal/c hybrid?) Message-ID: <315@gt-eedsp.UUCP> Date: 23 Jun 88 15:01:48 GMT References: <2980@ihuxz.ATT.COM> Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 16 Is the CMU Bliss the same as the BLISS used by DEC ? The one from DEC is a Medium (as opposed to High or Assembler) level language that is a lot like a cross of C and Pascal - Block structured like Pascal but with pointers and week type checking like C. If it is the DEC language, it may only be available under VMS - any DEC people out there ? P.
