Expires:

I too am interested in the IS Modula-2 compiler and would like to hear any
experiences with it.  I've been waiting for something decent to come out
(I can't bear Pascal even with ``fixes'' -- the best I've ever seen was
the souped-up Touretzsky(?sp) compiler at Case which looked like the Pascal-
based early Ada model; it was barely tolerable.  C is ok but I would prefer
something that will catch me if I make a multiple-file no-no. . .

Innformation on support, how readable the manuals are, how complete the
manuals are, what machines are supported (I have an ITT XTRA with 256K RAM)
and so on would be appreciated.
