ALGO 68 (dc) was the go to language for Burrough's [6-8]x00 variants.

These were fairly popular for awhile and supported advanced features like multiprocessing. The demand for exercising the full range of capabilities was kind of niche but an "amateur", like myself, could make a few bucks if you knew ALGOL.

I used to have the grey manual for the Burrough's variant - I'll have to poke around to see if it's in the attic somewhere.
