The first version of nim language https://nim-lang.org/ was written in Pascal. Here are the sources https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/tree/ea1f1ec6d4d6c776eb0f81c2bebdd4cb4c817ebe/nim Many times, when compiler is mature, the compiler is re-written in the target language itself. Freepascal compiler is written in Freepascal. First version of compiler must be written in other language, (of course, the are not compilers for the language ), usually a language that generates binary, compiling is very demanding to rely on virtual machines Probably that is why there are not Java compilers written in Java, or Python or Perl compilers written in Python or Perl . As usual, the most popular language will be most used language: C, C++ -- Saludos Santiago A. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
