 Not stupid at all. There is a commercial PC-DOS SIMULA compiler. For
 details, contact Rob Pooley at Edinburgh University
 (rjp@dcs.edinburgh.ac.uk).

 I have also just heard of a "free" PC-DOS compiler developed in
 Hungary. I have no knowledge of its quality but it is for the older
 "Common Base" definition of the language as opposed to the modern
 "Standard SIMULA". This compiler is available through the Association
 of SIMULA Users. I do not know whether it is necessary to be a member.
 For details, contact the ASU Secretariat (Henry Islo - hio@intek.se).

 Cheers....Ron
