[comp.lang.modula2] Public Domain Modula-2 for Macintosh

timm@kinetics.com (Tim Myers) (09/29/90)

I am posting this in response to requests for public domain Modula-2
development systems.

MacLogimo Plus version 1.2 is a public domain Modula-2 development system
for the Macintosh and is available by anonymous ftp from apple.com
(130.43.2.2) at the following path:

    /pub/ArchiveVol1/MLPModula2/MLPModula2.hqx

If you do not have the ability to ftp, contact Project Modula for
distribution information.  Sending the large development system via email
is not a prudent option.

MacLogimo Plus includes a MC68000 Modula-2 compiler, a linker,
a source level post mortem debugger, Modula-2 libraries, and a subset
of the Macintosh toolbox libraries.  A minimum system configuration of
a Macintosh 512KE with an external 800K floppy disk drive or a hard disk
is recommended.

It is not a commercial quality development system.  The user interface
is not commercial quality.  It is not everything for everyone.  However,
it is a solid Modula-2 compiler derived from the ETH MacLogimo source code
and it has been bootstrapped to work with new Macintosh computers.

Your feedback is important to the future of MacLogimo Plus.  Suggestions,
questions, and flames :-) should be directed to Tim Myers at:
