Abstract: New features added to SAIL, an ALGOL based language for the PDP-10, are discussed. The features include: procedure variables; multiple processes; coroutines; a limited form of backtracking; an event mechanism for inter-process communication; and matching procedures, a new way of searching the LEAP associative data base.
