I don't know how you get the source but it is a cool program.

It can simulate itself simulating itself simulating another program.
Lotsa cool stuff.

I couldn't find the source to CIN but I did find cint.

http://root.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/ROOT/CINT

It complied and ran on my mac no problem.  My examination of it was
cursory though.

I used CINT only together with ROOT and personally felt using C++ as a
interpreted language a little weird; no technical remarks here, only
personal ones, tho.

Anyway, as far as I could tell, people I know who work with ROOT on a
more daily basis write the programs as usually they do with C++ the
only difference being that they aren't compiled. They don't seem to
use the interpreter as much as programmers from other languages
considered as interpreted do.

CINT has nothing to do with cin.  There is a good paper on cin in the
9th Edition docs.

It went on to become vice, which has an X interface, or samuel, which
has a sam interface.

CINT looks pretty sucky.
