Mesa

   Xerox PARC, 1977.  System and application programming for
   proprietary hardware: Alto, Dolphin, Dorado and Dandelion.
   Pascal-like syntax, ALGOL68-like semantics.  An early version
   was weakly typed.  Mesa's modules with separately compilable
   definition and implementation parts directly led to Wirth's
   design for Modula.  Threads, coroutines (fork/join),
   exceptions, and monitors.  Type checking may be disabled.
   Mesa was used internally by Xerox to develop ViewPoint, the
   Xerox Star, MDE, and the controller of a high-end copier.  It
   was released to a few universitites in 1985.  Succeeded by
   Cedar.
