Overview

    This page shows an overview of the Green language. The reader should not assume all original Green features are presented here. We just made a collection of the most important original characteristics which are abstractly described. That means not only some Green features are missing but also that some others are described without giving the reader the broader picture in which they are inserted.
 

          At the end of each of the pages cited below there is a section  "What is new ?". This section points out the originality of the feature described in it. A more detailed description of Green is found in the report The Green Language (postscript).
