I've read the papers on Oberon by N. Wirth as published in _Software Practice & Experience_. Can anyone recommend to me a good book or books for learning Oberon? Something like PIM2 3ed was? (That's what I learned Modula from.) I've laid my grubbies on a copy of Ed Videki's Oberon-M compiler for DOS boxes. I found the standard IO to be positively bizarre, compared to what I was used to in M2's InOut and RealInOut. (That's no slam either to Oberon or the Oberon-M implementation. It's just that I'm no rocket scientist, and thus would greatly benefit from being able to get a good, basic Oberon reference.) Thanks in advance, Lou. -- Lou Glassy (uesu03@giac1.oscs.montana.edu) Watch the field behind the plow Earth Sciences Department Turn to straight, dark rows Montana State University Put another season's promise Bozeman, Montana 59715 USA In the ground... --Stan Rogers
