The teacher of our Data Structures class has decided to change from Pascal to Modula2 this term as the main programming language. Everyone agrees, that the use of Modula2 will be better for such a class, but we are having great difficulties getting the complier to work right. I don't know exactly which complier we are using, but it is using 'C' io routines like printf, open, writef, &c. The problem we seem to have is that when using a Transparent Data Structure, the front-end of the complier bombs with a Status of 139 - whatever that means. We have very little documentation on the complier, and the teacher has spent much time and effort on trying to get things to work. Ironically, the same exact program worked on another Vax with the same complier! Any comments, or suggestions would be most welcome. Either send them to the newsgroup, or reply with some personal e-mail. Deus aka Bill Nixon Univ.
