[edit] Isis workstation pgph

The bottom section here seem irrelevent. I don't know enough about Iris workstations to understand what it is doing here. --Anonymous

I removed the section for the time being; the contributor needs to give a context* in order for those machines to be mentioned in this article. . --Wernher 23:10, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
(* it seems Intel wrote the ISIS OS and a Pascal compiler in PL/M [1])

[edit] 4004?

I don't recall ever seeing any reference to PL/M for the 4004.

According to Fire in the Valley, p.xiv, Kildall implemented PL/M for the 4004 sometime during the fall of 1972. As of yet I haven't found any more sources for this. --Wernher 19:25, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] C input/output?

C doesn't have any input/output builtin, same as PL/M. All I/O is done via additional libraries. Good examples for languages with builtin I/O: Fortran, Algol, Pascal, BASIC, PL/1

[edit] PL/M on CP/M?

There never was a native PL/M implementation for CP/M, even Digital Research used the ISIS PL/M compiler running under an ISIS emulator under CP/M or the cross compiler written in Fortran.
