[comp.lang.eiffel] Eiffel on a PC

jono@syacus.acus.oz (Jonathan Goldstein) (03/21/90)

For the second time:

	Does anyone know of an implementation of Eiffel that will run
	on a PC under MS-DOS or OS/2?

	If not, are Interactive intending to market such a beastie?

Can I join the chorus? We use Turbo Pascal to teach our students.
It is fast, has a good debugger, and runs on a PC. Our students are
used to this convenience and won't move to a dumb terminal on a Unix
box if they can help it. How do we wean them to Eiffel? We don't
until Eiffel comes out on a PC at a price they can afford.

So when will Eiffel be available on a PC?
