[comp.lang.modula2] Logitech M2 Compilers

MASROB@UBVMS.BITNET (CNSM CCR - Rob Rothkopf) (04/12/89)

Rumour has it that the compiler division of Logitech folded and no longer
supports their Modula-2 compiler product line; does anyone have any information
substantiating this?  Also, their VMS compiler seems not to conform to standard
calling procedures (when trying to link to C code this was discovered) and many
system calls requiring ADDRESSes seem not to function correctly.  If anyone else
has had luck with such routines, please reply with E-MAIL.

My information ( I work for CCI, and    all-Logitech, all-Modula shop)
is that the compiler series is still supported, but in a new, Turbo-like
integrated shell. The old, clunky compilers (up to and including 3.03) are
no longer supported, but 3.x is ab vailable to 3.03 users who can't used
the integrated environment for somre  e reason.
