>>Will In the late 80s I worked with Ultimate Pick on a VAX, running software from SMI. That system used RPL as its native programming language. This was the Ultimate PICK that ran on an add-in board. RPL was an interesting language. I remember having to add NOP instructions into programs so that a subroutine wouldn't span groups or something. % variables were regular variables, and & variables were file buffers. There was an equate that sort of worked, but I remember it being problematic.
