[comp.lang.modula2] JPI, STONEBROOK, AND WHAT HAPPENED TO

   Stony Brook is Microsoft-link compatible.  JPI is not, never has been
and to all appearances never will be.  JPI tech support has been telling
lies about this incompatibility -- "We use the full Intel object format
not the Microsoft subset.  The reason we can't link with X is because
X calls the C runtime library and...." and Stony Brook has no trouble
linking with the very same program, yet has no C runtime library.
   Hmm.  Something is rotten in Denmark?
   Try Stony Brook Quickmod; 30 day moneyback guarantee, only $95, and
answers most pure Modula-2 development needs.  If you like it you can
always upgrade to the Professional package for the difference in price.
The only real difference is the optimizing compiler versus just the
quick compiler, and some link differences (Pro links with more stuff).
   Stony Brook looks like the best there is for now.
   Good luck.
