The CCITT High Level Language (CHILL) is a structured procedural programming language especially developed to program telephone exchanges and other communication equipment with. Originally developed by CCITT the first full specification was published in 1980. It is somewhat Pascal like and shows some similarity in structure to Ada.

OS/2 Implementations

  • GCC - GCC dropped CHILL support in 1999 but the OS/2 version did so even earlier, you may have to track down some ancient EMX port collection to actually find the CHILL port - Open source
Text editor support
  • jEdit - Java based editor - CHILL syntax highlighting built-in
