Fortran is no problem at all. But it may not qualify quite yet as the whole zicog/triblade thing is in flux so there isn't a proper writeup as yet.
And as a general comment, there are programs that are compiled on a PC and downloaded, but there are also the programs that are written and compiled on the propeller itself. I think the latter ought to qualify equally as much, possibly even more so. They include BDS C, the bascom basic compiler, sbasic and fortran amongst others. But I appreciate they won't be on the list until the writeup is in one place (even though I can say they are working).

5) Language may run on 3rd party prop boards if schematics
and build info is provided
The TriBladeProp pcb has schematics posted (and detailed assembly instructions for building the section required·to run ZiCog) on the TriBlade thread. So the TriBlade runs ZiCog &·CPM and has 64KB available to run the languages. Just a matter for someone to test all the possible languages.
I have tested MBASIC and so has Dr_Acula on the TriBlade and ZiCog.
@Dr_Acula: Have you compiled any Z80 Assembler on the TriBlade and ZiCog yet ???
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ Links to other interesting threads:
I just wrote, compiled and ran this fortran program on the propeller. No PC involved as it was done with the pocketerm terminal running its own vga monitor (in greenscreen text, of course!) Written in wordstar, then compiled and linked.
REAL X

X=10

It gives an answer of 30.00000
And yes, you can write assembly too in wordstar and compile and run it. All quite exciting really!

* Reverent Chinese bow in the direction of heater!
If you include MoCog, then you must include ZiCog. If you accept ZiCog running CPM, then MBASIC works. You will have to ask heater to try the Z80 Assembler under ZiCog and CPM.
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ Links to other interesting threads:
MoCog and ZiCog would not normally be seen as languages, they are CPU emulators.
They are only allowed here as languages if one accepts that the instructions/op-codes of a CPU are a language. Which of course in some technical definition they are. Op codes are the words of the language, the lexicon. They don't have much in the way of grammar rules. They for sure do have semantic meaning.
Even then MoCog and ZiCog don't define or name the languages that would be "Motorola 6809" and "Zilog Z80" instruction sets or some some such.
Unless of course "MoCog" and "ZiCog" are allowed as variants or implementations of a language in the same way as the many versions of C we have already.
I have to admit they are variants as they are not perfect emulations yet and may never be.
O.K. After that little though I've convinced myself that they should stay on the list.
As for MBASIC I have only offered pointers to languages that I have been able to get running myself. MBASIC is to big for the RAM available on my Prop Demo Board so I did not suggest it yet.
Clusso "Z80 Assembler under ZiCog and CPM." - I think you have already proved that one on TriBlade when doing syscpm2 to rebuild CP/M 2 or when you installed CP/M 3
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
For me, the past is not over yet.
Holy, stop it. A challenge like that could waste a lot of my time[noparse]:)[/noparse]
But now you mention it. When ZiCog is running what do we have from the list?
1) Spin - Taking care of start up, and peripheral emulation with serial ports, SD card etc.
2) PASM - The Z80 op-code emulation is written in PASM.
3) ZiCog - The Z80 emulation. As noted above the Z80 instruction set can be considered as a language.
4) Microsoft M80. - The CP/M operating system is written in assembly language and built the with M80 assembler.
5) MBASIC, 4KBASIC, C Pascal - Whatever program you are running in CP/M could be written in one of many languages.
6) At a pinch, and this is not on the list, CP/M itself. One could consider that a batch file of OS commands constitutes a language, like BASH for example. So if the program one is running was started from a CP/M SUBMIT file it should also be counted.
Wow 6 already. This challenge is not taking so long....Strangely enough we can now see that it is possible to have more than 8 languages running at the same time!!
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
For me, the past is not over yet.
The idea of a Cog running multiple languages is very significant. In the future, we may have a project to see exactly how many languages can fit into a single Prop. But first, we'll need to collect all the actual Prop working languages so I can finish this project of running all 50 languages on a Prop platform. It's taking longer than expected... is it possible to start counting OS's by the criteria that they were programmed in other languages? I'm not so sure.
I see BDS C is on the list now. Which emulation exactly?
Re "However, without the download of a working package..."
Steps for a working package:
1) Get a triblade board. Add 1 propeller chip, 1 512k ram chip, 1 latch, 1 eeprom, 1 sd card holder+card and either a usb to serial chip, or a max232.
2) Get the cpm2.dsk image off the altair simh site
3) run it through Cluso's small vb6 program to expand it out 4:1
4) repeat for the disk images on the simh site for z80 assembler, sbasic, fortran77, bds c, mbasic, wordstar and other languages
4) put the files on the sd card using a sd card reader/writer
5) get the zicog code and program the propeller
6) Change to the appropriate disk image, load wordstar, write a small program in your favourite language, save it and compile it
I can do the above with photos if it helps. Then you can easily get to 50 languages.
I am not so sure either. But I can vouch for MBASIC working months ago. See either the ZiCog or TriBlade threads as I posted a pic of the screen. Saved the program to disk (SD card) and reloaded it and ran it again

How about using a Hydra board? It uses one Prop, runs the HYDRA
Xtreme 512K SRAM Card or the HYDRA SD-MAX Storage Card,
and uses USB.
Second problem. None of us hacking on the Z80 emulator have a Hydra.
When I looked at the Hydra a long time ago I surmised that it was not a good choice for providing external RAM for the emulator especially if one wanted to go above 64K. The Hydra RAM interface is tuned for fast sequential/block access not the random byte accesses we need.
Since then someone (I forget who) has hacked the Hydra RAM cards CPLD to turbo charge it a bit so it might be worth reconsidering.
However in the meantime Cluso has come up with the TriBlade and other designs specifically targeted at apps that need fast random access to external RAM.
Anyway I hope to find time to put together a couple of language demo packages for the Z80 emulator that will run on a Prop demo board.

What do you mean by "Z80 emulation connection is now made"?
Do you have ZiCog running on a TriBlade and have therefore been able to try out all those CP/M languages for yourself?
Or do they still need to be proved on the metal, as it were ?
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
For me, the past is not over yet.
heater: testing these setups is open. I have taken the list and randomly chose one language at a time for full testing and implementation and don't have enough time to do all 80 by myself. Others posting on the forum have testified to the validity of other programs and setups. I have the TriBlade schematic and three Props but see you were planning to test all of this on a Prop Demo board, which is one of two most desired setups according to the rules. The other is the Propeller Proto Board. The connection is finally getting caught up with the postings and recommendations for working setups, doing the language and support files downloads, and "connecting" with the CPM versions for a Prop Z80 emulator. I can use all the help I can get. The project turned out to be massive. Plus, I'm considering increasing the goal from 50 to 100 languages for the Propeller. Do you think this is possible? At 80 count now, only 20 more languages are needed. Maybe we can knock these off one at a time.
Did I see SBASIC there? This is a capture from a propeller compiling and running a simple sbasic program:
A>type new.bas

call small procedures first then bigger procedures
as can't call/reference a later procedure (one pass compiler)
Dim common variables eg arrays at beginning of program

...........................Compilation complete
A>new
Hello World
A>
And you could add 8080 and Z80 assembly if not already there.
Sbasic is running under CP/M 2.2
Link is http://www.schorn.ch/cpm/intro.php about two thirds of the way down the page, "basic collection" there is a zip and it includes the sbasic .dsk image. Contains all the documentation too. It was well hidden but it is the easiest language I've ever programmed in. True structured programming long before its time.
(There are some other languages there too but I haven't tested them so I'm not sure if they can go in your collection. Yet...)
Re assembly, I'll need to check the absolute minimum you need and get the documentation together, but there are two compilers, one takes .asm files and one takes .mac files, and each package consists of two programs - a compiler and a linker. We are talking the late 1970s here, but one system used Digital Research's compiler and the other was from a company called Micro-Soft. Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose...
Comments
And as a general comment, there are programs that are compiled on a PC and downloaded, but there are also the programs that are written and compiled on the propeller itself. I think the latter ought to qualify equally as much, possibly even more so. They include BDS C, the bascom basic compiler, sbasic and fortran amongst others.

What do you mean by "Z80 emulation connection is now made"?
Do you have ZiCog running on a TriBlade and have therefore been able to try out all those CP/M languages for yourself?
Or do they still need to be proved on the metal, as it were ?

For me, the past is not over yet.

Now to get you to 100...
Did I see SBASIC there? This is a capture from a propeller compiling and running a simple sbasic program:
A>type new.bas comment call small procedures first then bigger procedures as can't call/reference a later procedure (one pass compiler) Dim common variables eg arrays at beginning of program end rem *** functions and procedures *** rem ************ MAIN ************** print "Hello World" end A> A>sbasic new tm S-BASIC Compiler Version 5.4b .0001:00 comment 0002:01 call small procedures first then bigger procedures 0003:01 as can't call/reference a later procedure (one pass compiler) 0004:01 Dim common variables eg arrays at beginning of program 0005:01 end 0006:00 rem *** functions and procedures *** 0007:00 0008:00 rem ************ MAIN ************** 0009:00 0010:00 print "Hello World" 0011:00 end 0012:00 ****** End of program ****** ...........................Compilation complete A>new Hello World A>And you could add 8080 and Z80 assembly if not already there.

Where is the link for the 8080 connection?

Link is http://www.schorn.ch/cpm/intro.php about two thirds of the way down the page, "basic collection" there is a zip and it includes the sbasic .dsk image. Contains all the documentation too. It was well hidden but it is the easiest language I've ever programmed in. True structured programming long before its time.
(There are some other languages there too but I haven't tested them so I'm not sure if they can go in your collection. Yet...)
Re assembly, I'll need to check the absolute minimum you need and get the documentation together, but there are two compilers, one takes .asm files and one takes .mac files, and each package consists of two programs - a compiler and a linker. We are talking the late 1970s here, but one system used Digital Research's compiler and the other was from a company called Micro-Soft. Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose...
