Walter Bright has a special place in my memory, I wonder what happened
to him? He eventually sold Zortech to Symantec (I presume). This
happened to be a surprisingly complete C++ (version 1 and version 2)
compiler suite for the 8086 and later processors. I still use it
occasionally, largely for small C utilities.
I found it all pretty impressive, for what my opinion may be worth.
In fact, his C++ compiler would, again in my opinion, complement Plan
9 rather successfully. Pity the source is not, to the best of my
knowledge, in the public domain.
