Hello.

There are (at least) 2 native code generating MODULA-2 compilers for the Mac
One is the "old" 5-pass system
from ETHZ. But right now I'm using their new 1-pass system called
MacMETH (announcement i net.micro.amiga or another amiga group)
It is fast, uses load-time linking, (fast link), and comes with
a fine source-code debugger.
Limitations are code-size at most 32K (pr MODULE, no limitation on maximum size)
"EXPORT QUALIFIED" not implemented yet but exports everything, 
and HFS not recognized, but it works within the directory it is  resides.

UUCP address of the distributor is : ...!mcvax!cernvax!ethz!heiz
(* Werner Heiz *).
Prize is around 200 Swiss francs.
