[comp.lang.modula3] Modula 3

halkoD@moravian.edu (David Halko) (02/19/91)

I am very interested in Modula3.

Modula2 is available under the Microware OS9-68K platform from various vendors
in several different countries now, but object code produced by the system
has a tendency of being large (compared to the extremely efficient C Compiler,
which crunches code down to rediculously shrunken levels.) A language which
keeps most of the similarities and basic features of Modula2 would be a plus,
and even more importantly, and advantage, if translated down to C Code so our
system could compile it the rest of the way down. Although not currently
available under the OS9 68K real-time environment, I would expect someone
out there to complete a version rather soon since the environment is so
close to UNIX. Using Sparc Stations, I also have a need to determine what 
features it presents, now.

If there is an electronic mailing list concerning the Modula3 system in
development, I would be most grateful if you would include me on that list.

My electronic mail address is halkoD@moravian.edu

Is Modula 3 available for either Macintosh or Atari ST Computers ?
Especially the latter would be interesting for many students.


       thanks,    bye Tilo.
