I wanted to mail this, but it bounced back.
     
Someone asked about TeX for System V, mentioning that he had a Pascal
compiler.  I mention...
     
There are also two versions of TeX in C.  One is Common TeX, and
a new version is coming soon, and I don't knwo how bug free it is.
     
The other is CTeX (also known as AmigaTeX, and is available at reasonable
cost from n2 Computer Consultants, (409) 696-1078.
     
CTeX passes the TeX torture test, which basically means you can't
find a better, more powerful version.
     
Tom Rokicki at Stanford translated Pascal into C.  Rumor has it he's
doing a Modula 2 version now.  He's pretty good at this stuff.
He wrote a Conway's Life game in TeX, for example.
