-<p>Beware! If you aren't a hard-core hacker, you'd best surf right

-
-<h1 class="c1">Abandon All Sanity, Ye Who Enter Here</h1>
-
-<p>So, you think you've seen it all, eh?</p>
-
-<p>OK. You've coded in C. You've hacked in LISP. Fortran and BASIC
-hold no terrors for you. You write Emacs modes for fun. You eat
-assemblers for breakfast. You're fluent in half a dozen languages
-nobody but a handful of übergeeks have ever heard of. You grok
-TECO. Possibly you even know <i><shudder></i> COBOL.</p>
-
-<p>Maybe you're ready for the ultimate challenge...INTERCAL.</p>
-
-<p>INTERCAL. The language designed to be Turing-complete but as
-fundamentally unlike any existing language as possible. Expressions
-that look like line noise. Control constructs that will make you
-gasp, make you laugh, and possibly make you hurl. Data structures?
-We don't need no steenking data structures!</p>
-
-<p>INTERCAL. Designed very early one May morning in 1972 by two
-hackers who are still trying to live it down. Initially implemented
-on an IBM 360 running batch SPITBOL. Described by a manual that
-circulated for years after the short life of the first
-implementation, reducing strong men to tears (of laughter). Revived
-in 1990 by the C-INTERCAL compiler, and now the center of an
-international community of technomasochists.</p>

-<h2>Documentation</h2>
-
-<p>You can browse the <a href="README.html">README</a>,
-<a href="NEWS.html">NEWS</a>, and <a href="BUGS.html">BUGS</a>
-files from the distribution from here.</p>
-
-<p>You can browse the <a href="ick.htm">Revamped INTERCAL Manual</a>,
-which describes C-INTERCAL's behavior and options since version 0.18
-in detail. You can also download the <a href="intercal.ps">Revised INTERCAL
-Manual</a>, which described 0.18 in detail and is a light revision of
-the infamous original, including the Circuitous Diagram and other
-illustrations.</p>
-
-<p>For those potentially interested in hacking C-INTERCAL's code,
-there's a <a href="THEORY.html">description of the compiler's
-internals</a>.</p>
-
-<h2>Source Code</h2>
-
-<p>The INTERCAL codebase is available for git cloning at:
-
-<p><a href="http://gitorious.org/intercal/intercal">git://gitorious.org/intercal/intercal.git</a></p>
-
-<p>Building INTERCAL requires either bison or yacc and flex or
-lex. The code builds and runs nicely under any ANSI/POSIX platform,
-including Linux and the free BSD versions. Past versions of this code
-have run under DOS/Windows, though whether it will still do so is
-unknown.</p>
-
-<p>Plans are afoot to supply distribution tarballs, but not yet
-completed. Have patience, the project is presently reorganizing after
-the move to git.</p>
-

-
-<h2>An INTERCAL paper</h2>
-
-<p>Alexander Garrett wrote a <a href="paper.html">paper</a> on
-INTERCAL for his Spring 1997 Programming Languages: Theory and
-Design class. Alexander writes:</p>
-
-<blockquote class="c2">The obvious choice was INTERCAL (I'm still
-quite surprised that I'm the only one who picked it — most people
-did Java??). Anyway, it was not favourably received...when [the
-professor] handed it back, he said, "Ah. I see you're someone with
-a sense of humour. Unfortunately for you, I'm not."</blockquote>
-
-<p>We have corrected two typos (misspellings of "Malvernite" and
-"compiler") in this copy.</p>
