  Flex
       
           A system developed by Ian Currie (Iain?)
          at the (then) Royal Signals and Radar Establishment at
          Malvern in the late 1970s.  The hardware was custom and
          microprogrammable, with an operating system, (modular)
          compiler, editor, garbage collector and filing system
          all written in Algol-68.  Flex was also re-implemented on
          the Perq(?).
