Article Robert Cemper · Jul 4, 2020 4m read Editor Archaeology During the development of the Terminal Multi-Line Command Editor I discovered in my IRIS installationa piece of software that I just can classify as a historic artifact. And it is still fully operational !!! As it dates back to times before InterSystems was founded in 1978 you may understand my surprise.I personally stepped into that environment in 1978 and used it then for daily work. #Other 16 5 0 399

Part of that partition was a space with all your local variables nicely sorted by %,A,..Z,a,...z #Beginner #Caché #InterSystems IRIS 14 3 1 1.2K

Close to that time, BLISS was designed at Carnegie-Mellon University (January 15, 1970)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLISSSimilarly in 1972 C language was written at Bell Labs.https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/chist.html #Caché #InterSystems IRIS 12 2 0 987
Article Robert Cemper · Aug 26, 2017 3m read From The Roots to InterSystems This is a rather personal view of the history before Caché.It is in no sense meant to compete with the excellent books from Mike Kadow discussed in an earlier article.We have different histories and so this is meant to create a different perspective of the past. #Caché #InterSystems IRIS 38 15 2 2.2K
