You can download the current version of Algol 68 Genie and its documentation here.
The development of Algol played an important role in establishing computer science as an academic discipline. The Algol 68 Genie project preserves and promotes Algol 68 out of educational as well as scientific-historical interest, by making available a recent checkout compiler-interpreter written from scratch by Marcel van der Veer, together with extensive documentation for both the language and this new implementation.
Algol 68 Genie is free software distributed under the GNU General Public License; it is a fast compiler-interpreter which ranks among the most complete implementations of the language.
You can download the current version and its documentation here.
The distribution lets you build Algol 68 Genie from source code on Linux or related operating systems. For Microsoft Windows 10 a WIN32 executable a68g.exe is provided that must be run using the Windows command line interpreter cmd.exe.
The documentation consists of detailed installation instructions, a comprehensive guide to programming in Algol 68, and the Revised Report on Algol 68.
Please send comments and bug reports to algol68g@xs4all.nl; your feedback will be appreciated.
