  20.                                | several novel features, such as expressions

  22.                                | goal-directed evaluation that will
  23.                                | automatically perform searches for a
  24.                                | successful result, and there is also string
  25.                                | scanning that allows operations on strings
  26.                                | to be formulated at a high conceptual level.

  34.                                | interpreter for the MVS TSO/E CList language
  35.                                | for use with MS-DOS. A large subset of the
  36.                                | CList language is supported.
  37. VSNOBOL.ZIP    242225  10-16-93  Vanilla SNOBOL4 (CatsPaw, Inc.; $95) is an
  38.                                | entry-level version of SNOBOL4 that includes
  39.                                | the entire Bell Labs SNOBOL4 programming
  40.                                | language, except for real numbers and
  41.                                | external functions. The total size of the
  42.                                | object program and data cannot exceed 30K
  43.                                | bytes in this version, but SNOBOL4 source is
  44.                                | usually five to ten times smaller than
  45.                                | equivalent code in C or Pascal. SNOBOL4
  46.                                | allows an unlimited number of user-defined
  47.                                | subroutines. SNOBOL4 is particularly
  48.                                | powerful in dealing with strings and
  49.                                | patterns and seems intuitive and thus
  50.                                | relatively easy to learn.
