	Hello folks!

Could someone tell me if there is available a reasonably good (and
possibly free) pretty printing program for Modula-2 and where can I
find a copy of such a beast?

I have found one pretty printer at uunet.uu.net. It has been written in
Modula-2 and doesn't compile correctly with the Gardens Point Modula-2
compiler on a MIPS though there seems to be nothing wrong with the code.
Anyway I would never know if there were something wrong with the source.
The gpm is not very clear with the error messages and the source code is
1300+ lines long. So it is no wonder I'd like to have something in C
(maybe with lex & yacc) where compilation units were at least near to
the optimum 200 to 250 SLOC per unit.
But please tell me about other m2-pretty-printers (not in C) as well
if you know about any.

Many thanks in advance
	Jukka Ukkonen

PS. Please mail your replys directly to me instead of a follow-up here
    in comp.lang.modula2, because I don't read this group regularly.
    I will send a collected list of the pretty printers here later.
