We are going to switch from Pascal to Modula-2 and are looking for a
VAX/VMS Modula-2 to be used in our undergraduate curriculum.

We would like a compiler / interpreter that

        1.  Is well supported - we don't have the time or staff to make our
                                own patches etc.
        2.  Uses VMS Debug    - we don't want to have students learn a new
                                debugger.
        3.  Is "friendly"     - this is a student environment.

        4.  Is cheap          - Governor Cuomo has been particularly
                                creative with the State University
                                budget this year.

We had originally planned on going with the Logitech Modula-2 but have been
told by them that they are no longer selling their VAX/VMS version.

I would be grateful for any suggestions.
