For TAOCP Knuth also creates a new assembly language, for illustration purposes.
TeX was written in WEB, a programming language Knuth made which transpiles to Pascal.
It's based on literate programming, a programming paradigm Knuth introduced.
And Knuth developed his own font, for use by TeX, along with a system to make fonts.
Crazy stuff indeed!
