SP/1(ID:5964/sp:002)

String processor for Fortran 

alternate simple view
Country: Canada
Designed 1969
Genus: List

List-based preprocessor for FORTRAN to enable string macros after the fashion of LIMP, but specific to FORTRAN. Due to inefficiencies in the compilation time, the list-based system was replaced by a stack-based system as MP/1
The feature set for the string manipulation was designed to be the same as SNOBOL, but lacked the indirect referencing system
