I've heard about a translator (producing SAS C-code) from Comeau.
SAS own C++ is (I think) only C++ 1.2.
Maybe GNU g++ will be ported in the near future?

-2. Prolog

Stony Brook (sp?) Prolog on two Fish disks.

-3. LISP
-4. Smalltalk
-5. Eiffel (I think I'm really pushing my luck here!)

Try giving an A3000 to a guy here at work (Enea Data). He's currently
proting Eiffel to different platforms, and if he had an Amiga I'm
sure he couldn't resist the challenge! :-)

I think that a real object-oriented language like Eiffel would be
perfect for Amiga (and ofcourse any other GUI-machine). The development
of programs could be significately shortened if you have well-done
libraries with objects like windows, scroll-bars ...
