[comp.lang.modula2] 2 M-2 compilers

S703975@UWEC.BITNET (ANDREW TREMBLEY) (09/09/89)

To the party interested in the Mac Modula-2 compiler.  Metropolis
Computer's MetCom Modula-2 is a pretty good M-2 compiler.  It has extensive
libraries and very fast compilation time.  It can be configured
to optimize code for 68000 or 68020, and compile math functions
directly to 68881.  The editor is OK in mac terms (but better than
just about every other system), though it has a few small quirks.
one is that it doesn't always handle word wrap/scrolling on the
bottom line welll.

I also have a question.  At the university here, We're using  th
logitech Modula-2 compiler for vax.  (the one that gives run-time
errors at inopportune moments.)  Could anyone suggest  a VAX M-2
compiler that works better?
