   I need some help. I've been using the Top-Speed M2 compiler for a few months
now. I've enjoyed every aspect of it except for 2 excluded features. 1 is 
that there is no command line compiler. I really don't like the editor provided
and would love to use my Emacs editor. The other is that all of the compiler 
files and my own files must be in the same BLOODY directory as the compiler.

1) Does anyone know (if possible) how to set the compiler up to look in 
   sub-dirs for stuff?

  Also, I heard that the FST M2 compiler had a command line compiler, SO I got 
that one and installed it. It lets me use my editor and it allows for sub-dirs 
and is very clean and appeared powerful. Of course, that view didn't last.
  My first attempt at compiling a class project crashed on this compiler but
not on Top-Speed's. This is the problem:

e:\m20\mylib>mc project2 /c
Modula-2 compiler, Version 2.0a
(C) Copyright 1987, 1988 Fitted Software Tools. All rights reserved.

Memory model in use: LARGE
Output file format: M2O

Compiling project2.mod (the main module) 
 -> project2.MOD
Pass 1
 -> e:\m20\m2lib\System.DEF
 -> wordlist.DEF, Line    38, Pos    70 -> illegal procedure type


This is the procedure declaration:

DEFINITION MODULE wordlist;

 CONST
   MaxWordLength = 28;                  (* Maximum length of a list word. *)
   MergeCharMax = "~";                  (* Character higher than any word *)
                                        (*  char.                         *)
 TYPE
   List;                                        (* The type of list.      *)
   WordArray = ARRAY[0..MaxWordLength] OF CHAR; (* Word type for each     *)
                                                (*  list element.         *)
   .
   .
   .
 PROCEDURE Contents (CurrentWord : List; OfKey : BOOLEAN) : WordArray;
   .                                                        ^
   .                                                        |
   .                                                       This is where the 
                                                           error points me to.
   This procedure simply returns a string that is held one of 2 fields of 
    the CurrentWord record in a list.

2)WHAT IS THIS COMPILIER TRYING TO TELL ME? 
  
 I  N E E D  to get one of these compiliers to do what I want!
 Can anyone help me with either problem?

If it's easier, E-Mail me at woiccak@acsu.buffalo.edu

Thanks,
