Hi Infovaxers,
	I have given up trying to interface pascal to modula 2.
However now I would like to go at it from ythe other angle call
pascal/c/fortran from modula2.  Has anyone tried this?  I can't
set modula2 to define anything as an external procedure.  If
I call something a definition module everything else in the same
file doesn't produce object code!  Even regular modules!  Does anyone
have any ideas???  Modula2 is supposed to be a systems programming
langauge so you should be able to call external rtns from it!  If you
can't then how can you do systems programming???

Please reply directly to me and I will summarize if there seems to
be enought interest.

Thanks
Al Saganich
