   Hi, Peter.  Got my local sysop to look up the echo, and lo! it was
available, with some kindly effort.
   How are things going with JPI?  Last I heard they were refusing to
do any refunds on their Many Broken Things, refusing to fix them right
now but will fix them Some Day Real Soon Now, and you were getting
heat because you wanted something that worked.
   We can discuss things in a more genial environment here.
 
   I'm building laptops these days, and everyone seems to be scared of
Modula-2 for some reason.  The desire is that I use C and Assembler,
not unreasonable I suppose as they *are* more standard tools.  As for
M2, I have recommended Stony Brook as worth looking at, and JPI as a
piece of cheesy junk.
   You converted to Stony Brook yet?
   I've largely made the leap.  The thing I really want to lay hands to
is PMI modules, not quite ready yet for Stony Brook 2.1.  Source and all,
and I'll be past the compiler blues once and for all, and past the par
where I can't move between compilers.
   I'm starting to be more favorably inclined towards PMI and their like.
   Later.
