TMG (from transmogrifier) is an early compiler-compiler first developed by Robert McClure in the mid-1960s. Later it was ported and further developed by Doug McIlroy of Bell Labs to work on microcomputers PDP-7 and PDP-11 under the UNIX operating system. McIlroy's dialect of TMG (the Unix TMG) was included into the UNIX operating system from Version 2 to Version 6.

Implementations

There are two ways to run Unix TMG on modern machines:

  • by using a PDP-11 emulator with the original Unix V6 image
  • by running a modern port of Unix TMG
