in reply to Portuguese code

See also Lingua::Romana::Perligata, Lingua::Shakespeare, or even Acme::Chef. And there was a joke with a modified perl syntax that changed keywords to french equivalents and changed the $ silgil to FR (if anyone can find a link to it please reply).

Update: oh, how could I forgot the one I wrote: http://www.math.bme.hu/~ambrus/pu/psz-snapshot.tgz.

Update: By the way, the only completely programming language with localized keywords that was intended completely seriously is Excel worksheet functions and macros. Logo also has localized variants too, but I think they also accept the english keywords and abbreviations as well – I'm not completely sure, I've only used English-only variants.

    I think Algol 60 (and AFIK Algol 68) would count here too. In the Algol standard, the actual graphical representation of the keywords was left implementation independent, and I remember having seen at least one Algol 60 using German keywords (i.e. WENN instead of IF).
