Description:

The development of Algol played an important role in establishing computer science as an academic discipline. The Algol 68 Genie project preserves Algol 68 out of educational as well as scientific-historical interest, by making a modern, well-featured hybrid compiler-interpreter written from scratch, which ranks among the most complete Algol 68 implementations. It features arbitrary precision arithmetic, complex numbers, parallel processing, partial parameterization, and formatted transput, as well as support for curses, regular expressions, and sound.

As one of the oldest ISPs in the Netherlands will discontinue
its last hosting services, the site that hosted the project's

This was urged because of the little time between the last two

upon every new release, so the distfile for version 3.5.6 have
not been cached on our servers. Add fallback download location

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by:		portmgr (tcberner)

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

lang/algol68g: update Algol 68 Genie to version 3.0.7
Reported by:	portscout

lang/algol68g: update Algol 68 Genie to version 3.0.6, hook the tests
This new release is mostly the result of the evolution of the previous
version over the [five] years. Since the hardware representation of
several modes has changed, the version number has been incremented.
Former Algol 68 Genie versions 1 and 2 implement 32-bit INT, BITS and
64-bit REAL modes, while implementing all LONG and LONG LONG modes in
software. Version 3 implements 64-bit INT, REAL and BITS modes, and
128-bit LONG modes which are supported by modern processors; only LONG
LONG modes remain implemented in software.
Version 3.0 offers bindings for more functions from the GNU Scientific
Library, as well as for statistical routines from the GNU R stand-alone
mathematics library, and adds a generalized incomplete gamma function
according a recent algorithm by Abergel and Moisan from the University
of Paris. Also, it incorporates reported bugfixes.
While here, drop CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable-compiler as it is enabled by
default, and switch to dedicated pkg-plist now that there are 36 files.
