looks like an absolutely uninteresting boomer language, by the fact that it just shows standard imperative stuff followed by "wow it supports unicode, we are up to date"! (which is a misfeature, btw, i like being able to audit my code before running it (not that thats possible in the current mess of misconceived computers but yeah still it would be good to start doing things in the right direction). its interesting that there is supposedly an os in oberon that actual uses the same language for the shell or something or the kernel is written in it or something like that but this page just makes me think its not worth looking into after all |

This is a common misconception. Oberon's text-based user interface lets you invoke commands in the M.P form, but it doesn't really have a shell language—at least not in the familiar sense—and to the extent that something like one kind of exists, it certainly isn't the same as Oberon-the-language.
