     Does anyone have a clear line to where someone is planning to
     release a native code Modula-2 for the Mac?  I have seen both
     the Volition and Modula corp versions and I assume that the 
     public domain compiler is also a intermediate code version.
     MacModula has a nice interface with the Mac but takes forever
     to compile and link.  The Volition compiler is the P-system all
     over again but otherwise is an excellent intermediate code 
     compiler.  I want POWER!  I have heard that Senic is doing a
     native but I haven't heard hide nor hair of it since last 
     Christmas.  Modula Corp is also in the race but they seem far
     behind in their schedule.  Also there are rumors of a Borland
     turbo pascal for Mac, and they are working on a turbo M-2, but
     it will be out on the PC first.  It may take a while for it to
     make it to the Mac.  I even called Interlogic and they want to
     transport their M-2 compiler to Mac, but its just a pipe dream
     as of yet.
     
     Anybody got a newer set of rumors?ar
