[net.micro.pc] Modula-2 for the IBM PC

peterr@utcsrgv.UUCP (Peter Rowley) (08/06/83)

Has anyone used a Modula-2 system for the IBM PC?  Included with a copy
of "Programming in Modula-2" (N. Wirth, Springer-Verlag, NY, 1983) is an
order form whereby S-V will sell one a compiler, linker, symbolic debugger,
command interpreter, and utilities, to run with MS-DOS or CP/M-86 on the
PC, for US$495, qty 1, with quantity discounts available.  A version for
the Apple Lisa is available for $595.  Both are said to be by Logitech.
I'd be very interested in comments on this system and in pointers to
reviews of it or other Modula-2 systems for the IBM.  I'll summarize in
a couple of weeks given sufficient response.
