My Languages So Far (1)

I’ve developed a number of programming languages in the past, some successful and some not. The two most successful, although not widely known, are:

  • HUGO: A language I designed in the 1970’s for typesetting Canadian Government publications.

  • OmniMark: A language I designed in the late 1980’s into the 1990’s for the Exoterica company (that became OmniMark and now is Stilo).

Both HUGO and OmniMark supported multi-phase rule-based programming.
