Not that Scala.
This predates that. It's written in Ada.

Does it count if, combining the two, one could infer a musical scale[0] such as:
Bonus points for Latin aficionados:Ada (ay-dah), Scala (ska-lah)
:-)The word "scale" originates from the Latin scala, which literally means "ladder".Every Good Boy…
Crazy how these two disciplines are so intertwined.

:-DDo Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do, So Do ... compile please!EDIT:
Seriously, though, what both music and fundamentally sound programming languages have in common is math. Elegantly defined versions of both are beautiful expressions of thought.
Yes, but the programming languages is much more well known.
Regardless, cool! This is the first project I'm aware of to have been written in Ada
Do you have any specific restrictions on what a 'project' means here? I have seen Ada used on an extensive scale in aerospace and defense projects, including a simple realtime OS.
Most of those projects are pretty locked down/closed, I just mean I can actually see the project to a reasonable degree.
Fair enough. And yes, it's such a shame that there aren't more public, especially FOSS, projects in Ada.
And not the Amiga Scala.
This should have been in the title :)
