Amiga E
e Amiga E is a programming language and compiler I started creating for
the Amiga in `91, released publicly in `93, commercially in `94, and
released as open source in `97. It was most similar to C++, in the
sense that it was fast and weakly typed, and had a rich set of features
from procedural, object oriented and functional programming languages.
I wrote the entire thing in assembly language, which will always
persist in my mind as the craziest software engineering exercise I have
ever gone through (400kb of mostly uncommented assembly in a single
source file, for a complex compiler).
The original description I gave to it:
E is an object-oriented/procedural/unpure functional/whatever
language with quite a popular implementation on the amiga. It's
mainly influenced by languages such as C++, Ada, Lisp etc., and
features extremely fast compilation, inline assembler, large set of
integrated functions, powerful module concept, flexible type-system,
quoted expressions, immediate and typed lists, parametric and object
polymorphism, exception handling, inheritance, data-hiding, methods,
multiple return values, default arguments, register allocation, fast
memory management, unification, LISP-Cells, macro-preprocessing, a
very powerful source-level debugger, gui-toolkit, library linker,
and then some.
Amiga E was a tremendous success, it became one of the most popular
programming languages on the amiga.
The compiler is now open source (GPL). You can get all these files from
here:

AmigaE that runs on Amiga OS3, OS4, AROS & MorphOS, and Windows!

entire in... E! and his older [10]YAEC compiler.
