'''TXL''' is a special-purpose [[programming language]] originally designed by [[Charles Halpern-Hamu]] and [[James Cordy]] at the [[University of Toronto]] in 1985. The acronym "TXL" originally stood for "Turing eXtender Language" after the language's original purpose, the specification and [[rapid prototyping]] of variants and extensions of the [[Turing (programming language)|Turing]] programming language, but no longer has any meaningful interpretation.
