Amiga E is a programming language created by Wouter van Oortmerssen on the Amiga computer. The work on the language started in 1991 and was first released in 1993. The original incarnation of Amiga E was being developed until 1997, when the popularity of the Amiga platform dropped significantly after the bankruptcy of Amiga intellectual property owner Escom AG.[1][2]
According to Wouter van Oortmerssen:
"It is a general-purpose programming language, and the Amiga implementation is specifically targeted at programming system applications. [...][3]"
In his own words:
"Amiga E was a tremendous success, it became one of the most popular programming languages on the Amiga."[4]
