'''TMG''' (from ''transmogrifier'') is an early compiler-compiler first developed by Robert McClure in the mid-1960s. Later it was ported and further developed by Doug McIlroy of Bell Labs to work on microcomputers PDP-7 and PDP-11 under the UNIX operating system. McIlroy's dialect of TMG (the '''Unix TMG''') was included into the UNIX operating system from Version 2 to Version 6.▼
