C was already limited by 1960's standards when compared to PL/I, NEWP and JOVIAL, 1970's standards when compared to Mesa and Modula-2, ..... It got lucky ridding the UNIX adoptiong wave, an OS that got adopted over the others, thanks to having its source available almost at a symbol price of a tape copy, and a book commenting its source code, had it been available as commercial AT&T product at VMS, MVS, et al price points, no one would be talking about UNIX philosophy. |
