I don't think i ever saw piss-poor Ottawa Euclid, but the prerequisite
maths (higher order logics) kept the user community pretty tight-knit
and erudite. :-)

[ And conversely, erudite exceptional 31337 haxors have done literate
programming in macro-assembler, Lisp/Scheme, APL/J/K,
FORTH/Postscript, ..., most elegantly.  Happily i haven't read enough
SNOBOL or BF to have an opinion whether such exceptions exist for all
the "write only" languages, but such is true for all that ever
mattered.  ]
