An album of modes, operators and procedures has been implemented to provide SNOBOL-like character string pattern matching facilities for the Algol 68 programmer. Most of the primitive functions and operators of SNOBOL 4 are included in the album. This paper describes some of the facilities available and briefly outlines their implementation.

In many situations the atoms in a list can require a considerable amount of storage space or can be difficult to evaluate. When handling algorithms which only refer to a few atoms of a list much time and space can be wasted if the whole list is stored. In this paper an attempt is made to store lists as procedures which are only evaluated if absolutely necessary. The difficulties which arise when programming such a list processor in Algol 68 are caused by inherent scoping problems. A solution is presented for linear lists together with an example based on the processing of an infinite list.

Some questions of run-time storage management for ALGOL 68 are discussed. In the first section it is shown that in many cases copying of already existing values is not necessary, in spite of the fact that the Report prescribes this. The second section gives a new approach for finding the starting points for tracing the lists of values during garbage collection. In the third section we introduce a new area (in addition to the stack and the heap) for making the garbage collection process less expensive. The fourth section describes the general memory organization: stack, heap and bubble.
