[comp.lang.modula3] Porting to Amiga

al158305@mtecv2.mty.itesm.mx (Gustavo Cordova Avila) (04/11/91)

  Hi! This is the first time I post to this group,
although I've been reading it for some time now.
Has anybody ported the DEC implementation to the
Amiga OS? Or, if nobody has, I'd like to undertake
the project, but the question is: How big are the
sources and in what languaje are they?
  I know it must be a dumb question, but somebody's
gotta ask it :)

I don't know of any such ports.

SRC Modula-3 isn't the smallest possible Modula-3 system.  The current 
distribution is just under 5MB compressed.  It's around 15MB uncompressed.
That includes the Modula-3 sources for the compiler and libraries and
enough C "object code" to bootstrap the system.  The compiler proper is
about 33K lines of Modula-3 or 1.2 MB.
