Many, many eons ago, in the early '90's, there was an implementation of B for
Linux ( I believe it was written in C, ironically enough ). I think it was part of a
bigger collection of "ancient" software for Linux that use to be around in the
early Slackware days.
Alas, I have searched for it in the recent past, as I was thinking about porting it to OS
X for kicks, but it seems to have vanished.
Having an B, implemented in a modern language for a modern OS would be cool.

Hi,
In memoriam, I read The Development of the C Language:

It talks a bit about how B was originally implemented somewhat like
ETH Pascal (p-code). Are there any B interpreters or programs in the
archive?
Thank you,
