Derrik Walker scripsit:
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.
The Retrocomputing Museum at http://www.catb.org/retro/ has what purports
to be a B-to-C translator at http://www.catb.org/retro/ , but looking
at it, it appears to be about BCPL rather than B proper. In any case,
it has missing files and won't build.
