    MALUS is a subset of a language called APPLE: the latter is a large subset of PL/I and also contains some of the facilities of the Associative Programming Language (APL)[Dodd, 1966]. APPLE is for the
    application programmers. MALUS will be used to write the time-sharing monitor, and also the APPLE compiler. MALUS is now running on the 67 and generates code for the STAR prototype; a preliminary version is also running on the STAR prototype. The APPLE compiler will be started later this year and will be written in MALUS. (Above information from Marcotty [197l].)
