Word-11?  Is that another name for WPS-Plus?

(WPS-Plus ran on PDP11 and VAX.  Very very slowly and poorly on a
PDP11 because of the Virtual Disease -- you can't write a program for
a 32 bit platform, drop it into a 16 bit platform using essentially
the same architecture, and expect it to work sensibly.  It's written
in one of the world's most obscure programming languages -- Koala,
named after K.O. who inflicted it on DEC.)
