Walter Smith <http://waltersmith.us/newton>, the original designer of the
NewtonScript programming language, has released some of his NewtonScript
source code from 1997:

<https://github.com/wrs/prota>

>From the README <
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wrs/prota/master/README.md>:

  "I wrote this in 1997. It got to this point before I got distracted by
other things. :) I originally called it 'Proto' and got about halfway
through changing it to 'Prota'."


  It implements

  * The basic NewtonScript object model
  * A NewtonScript interpreter
  * A package stream reader (no writer)
  * A printer"
