Marketing name for the AT-3 compiler by Charles Katz et al, at UNIVAC

In the initial approach letter by the GAMM to the president of ACM in 1957, this language was considered closest (along with Perlis' IT) to the ideal language for which they were aiming (more so than FORTRAN). Subsequent correspondence confirms this
