Hi,
Knowing you all to be N. Wirth fans ( like me ;-), I thought those of you
not privy to IBMPC-L or the simtel news would like to know an Oberon
compiler for the MS-DOS enviornment was uploaded to simtel20:
PD:<MSDOS.PGMUTL>OBERONM.ZIP ( about 134K zip file ).
The readme file claims it to be a FULLY functional Oberon compiler
following Wirth's definition to the "T". I checked it out, but don't know
Oberon well enough to really test it. There are two postscript files ( that
I printed ) which offer the syntax of the language and the latest definition
of the language by Wirth ( dated 1.10.90 <- no, I don't know if Jan or Oct ).
There was no mention in the ZIP file of this being PD or SW. I believe
the posting I learned of it from state it was a pre-commercial release ( bug
tester maybe? ).
