After more than three years collecting data and writing the articles which began with coverage of APL in July of 2008 the end of the promissed alphabet has been reached with the article in the November 2011 issue on the language: ZPL.
I remember seeing other articles in other computer magazines referring to something similar, but do not recall any having done so. However, this really is not so daunting a task as the article on XML mentions that there are a very large number of XML languages and that there are enough so that such an alphabet of just XML articles could be accomplished.
Thankfully I will not be taking such a route. I am approaching the age of 70 and have seen my typing skill diminish rapidly. Words which I know how to construct wind up with letters amiss requiring back stepping to adjust.
You may find the article on the ZPL language by following this link:

While reviewing the text I noticed that coverage for Guile and Haskell was not given on this blog. So another post will correct soon this.
