Hello All.. Is QuickMod capable of producing Windows programs if used in conjunction with the MicroSoft SDK? Thanks for any help. Mark Bacas -- uucp: uunet!m2xenix!puddle!396!16!Mark.Bacas Internet: Mark.Bacas@f16.n396.z1.fidonet.org

Sorry to be so long getting back to you. There is an OS/2 version of QuickMod and a DOS version. Each is $95. As for windows, gee, since I have pro I don't know, really. I just got the 2.20 release which does windows so, yeah, I guess it does since I can do it under either the quickmod or optimizing compiler. Happy hunting! -- uucp: uunet!m2xenix!puddle!161!42!Frank.Warren Internet: Frank.Warren@f42.n161.z1.fidonet.org

Actually I was told by Stony that you need the Professional version. I've bought the QuickMod and I'm really enjoying it. Straight, clean, fast Modula-2 system.

The spec sheet I have from stonybrook says that the optimizing compiler has headers for windows. You need the windows linker and docs (m2 function calls are named the same as MS-c so you can use MS's docs). The quickmod compiler makes no mention about windows. Maybe you need to buy the header files, etc separately. jamesp@world.std.com

Glad you like it. I like Professional even better, but that's a heavier-duty buy-in price. Depends on whether you need the extra execution speed and the add-on goodies or not. Later, and happy coding. -- uucp: uunet!m2xenix!puddle!161!42!Frank.Warren Internet: Frank.Warren@f42.n161.z1.fidonet.org

Well, I plan on getting it, I just wanted to see if I thought there product was any good, and if I would like to use it. I figured I'd get the quickmod, and check it out, then if I really liked it I'd get the professional version.
