Hello, can you please point me to a source for a Modula2 compiler for the IBM PC, preferably something like the MetroWerks Macintosh package.... TIA st

A fairly nice one with a UI very similiar to Turbo Pascal V3.x is called FST (Fitted Software Tools) Modula-2. It's located at simtel-20 (and all the usual other places and ways) in PD1:<MSDOS.MODULA2> and called M2*.ZIP. I've used it casually and it seems to work. IMHO it is one of the best PD/Shareware M2 compiler available. If you want a com M2 compiler, Logitech, Stony Brook, and JPI all make quite nice ones. bruce -- | Bruce O'Neel | internet : oneel@heasfs.gsfc.nasa.gov| | Code 664/STX | span : lheavx::oneel | | NASA/GSFC |compuserve: 72737,1315 | | Greenbelt MD 20771 | AT&Tnet : (301)-286-1119 |
