Description
SMILE was a program developed by Bernstein and Bryan for the JOHNNIAC computer. From handwritten note in folder: "ALMOST - a completely on-line system. The name of the system - ALMOST is appropos for several reasons - the main one being that it embodies almost but not quite [all] those features one expects to find in a computer system. [...] To put it as bluntly as possible - ALMOST is little more than a very sophisticated calcuclating engine - one must stretch the definition of 'computer' to bring ALMOST within range."
