But a question, is it as portable as C? I'm interested in possibly checking out the world of m2, but need some more info, you know, the stuff that makes your language interesting. What are the benefits of M2? as compared to other languages? Portability, Power, etc.? Your replies are appreciated. for C you can get tons of toolboxes to make C do almost anything, is there anything like this for M2? fill me in.. thanks. James. Logitech Modula-2, any good?? -- uucp: uunet!m2xenix!puddle!208!200!James.Jackson Internet: James.Jackson@f200.n208.z1.fidonet.org
