Building an Algol68 interpreter for the Raspberry Pi or How to be a world champion procrastinator
I'm got disgusted with Virtualbox when trying to get a USB webcam working with it so rather than building a new linux system to use for developing some object indentification from a webcam software i decided to see if there were any nice open source compilers or interpreters for things like Algol, Snobol4 etc.
I found an Algol68 interpreter on sourceforge that seems to be still maintained (last update in 2011 and a related piece of software updated this year) http://algol68.sourceforge.net/ so i thought i'd give it a go using an ARM fedora rootfs. I ran the configure script and saw that it would like gsl & ncurses so I added the runtimes and headers using yum inside scratchbox2 and then reran the configure script and then make and after adding the usual "-fsigned-char" it built with non of the usual X86 C to ARM C warnings.
