About 3 weeks ago I inquired in this newsgroup about the status of FST Modula-2. I haven't learned anything since then, so I am asking again. Does anybody know how to get Roger's attention? I can't send E-Mail - it bounces. I can't get an answer on his bulletin board. If all my attempts fail to contact him fail, what is the chance of me getting the source code to the libraries from somebody? I registered last summer, and he still has not cashed the check. I badly need the source to the libraries in order to interface C and Modula-2. I've got some projects that are dead in the water until I get that code which I've tried very hard to pay for. My worst fear is that I'll have to re-write about 5000 lines of Modula-2 in C and abandon the language for good. At least I know that I'll always be able to get a C compiler somewhere. I can't really go out and buy a commercial Modula compiler because I'm a poor student. I'll be able to afford Borland's Turbo-C++ and that's about it. I'd appreciate it if anybody could tell me anything about how to talk to Roger. Let me know the last time his modem answered the bulletin board line, etc. Any information might help.

I moderate the modula.2 conference on BIX. I haven't heard from Roger Carvalho in quite a while. I will check his conference, and I will find out when he last logged on to BIX, and will let you know. ...Russ UUCP: ucsd!serene!pnet12!rschnapp ARPA: crash!pnet12!rschnapp@nosc.mil INET: rschnapp@pnet12.cts.com

Bad news, folks -- Roger hasn't checked into BIX in many, many months. There has been no significant activity in the FST conference in a year and a half. I think you have to write of FST Modula-2 if you're hoping for any support... ...Russ UUCP: ucsd!serene!pnet12!rschnapp ARPA: crash!pnet12!rschnapp@nosc.mil INET: rschnapp@pnet12.cts.com
