You misread what Jean said. This is not a list of programming languages coming from France, it is a list of languages where some or all the keywords are in French, by default or optionally.Jean Louis wrote:French based programming languages are: Logo, RoboMind, Catrobat, AppleScript, ALGOL 68, GOTO++, Linotte, LSE, BASICOIS, SPIP, 4th Dimension, so that is all from the above reference.Sorry, I disagree 100% with everything in your post but yes, for the record no one is making the case the French didn't contribute to the computer world, on the contrary as you show (cool) but that isn't the issue, well, it hasn't been so far anyway, I've been speaking of the computer world langauge only, which happens to be ... not French. And it doesn't matter what they did or didn't do, sorry.
I personally don't support translating programming languages. I had too many unpleasant experiences with Excel/Libreoffice (I don't remember which one was translating the functions to French, but not both, and it was very confusing).
