JOVIAL goes back to the 1960s as "Jules' Own Version of the International Algebraic Language." ALGOL and IAL are the same thing. JOVIAL was used almost exclusively by the United States Air Force. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Aronson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 11:05 Subject: Re: [SC-L] Programming languages -- the "third rail" of secure coding

You missed FORTRAN, ICON, REXX, SNOBOL, and the assorted OS-based shell scripting languages (bash/csh/ksh/etc., VMS DCL, DOS .bat, etc.). I've heard of JOVIAL, which I *think* is a programming language used almost exclusively in the US military. Since a few companies make things that translate it into code, you might consider UML as well. Then there are a gazillion languages for particular commercial packages -- you got Oracle's PL/SQL, but there are also dBase/Clipper, FrEd (Framework Editor, from an old integrated office suite), Lotus 1-2-3 macros, and many more. Also, depending on your definition of "programming language" (versus "markup language" and a few other types), you might have a few extras as well. -- David J.
