However, I still think they have a U.S. office in New York. As far as I know all the Power System compilers are available for the Apple IIGS. I personally have the UCSD Pascal compiler and Assembler and I distinctly remember people talking about the Fortran compiler for the IIGS Power System. And I have seen the Modula-2 compiler as a friend of mine has it. Here are the addresses I have for Pecan: Pecan Software Europe Victoria House 10 Kellaway Avenue, Bristol BS6 7XR Pecan Software Systems Inc, 1410 39th Street Brooklyn, New York 11218 (718)851-3100 FAX : (718)853-6972 If you still cannot locate Pecan contact me or go to CodePort on CompuServe and leave a message, the Pecan people will hang out there every now and then to answer questions...also, there should be other Power System and Apple P-System users. Also, if you (or anyone else) uses the Power System or Apple P-System I would suggest joining USUS as they have lots of good source code and can provide several resources for programmers (USUS is not just the P-System anymore by the way, although it definitely IS the place for Power System and P-System information). USUS can be contacted at: USUS P.O. Box 1148 La Jolla, CA 92038 Lastly, as I said above, Pecan has all their compilers for the IIGS, I'm actually unsure about the C compiler, but I'm 100% percent sure they have the UCSD Pascal and Modula-2 Compiler and almost positive on the Fortran-77 and BASIC compiler...can't see any reason why they wouldn't have their C compiler available though. ________________________________________________________________________ | | | | Keith R.
