As far as I know, you have 2 choices:
* Sempersoft Modula-2 (running under MPW)
* MetCom Modula-2 (application with own environment)

I personally use a special version of a compiler written by Bob Campbell (it
used to be TML Modula-2) but this isn't a product anymore.

Both of the above compilers are reasonably cheap (< $200).
