The compilers we are now using are a Volition's P-system and Modula Corp. one pass compiler as well as their two pass one. These are both run using IBM PC'S or compatibles. One of the biggest gripes about the compilers is the compilation speed although the Modula Corp. one pass is reportedly a big improvement. Does anyone out there have a opinion on these compilers as compared to others on the market ? Also does anyone have an example of a program written in MODULA-2 that takes advantage of MODULA-2 's ability to do concurrent processes ? If you could send me a listing I would greatly appreciate it. MARK.
