I presume this was a question. I'd forgotten about p1. In the US, only
Metrowerks is in business that I know of. And you don't see ads here for the
p1 compiler. So it doesn't get much use in the States. This is not to imply
that the product is inferior or deficient in any way.

It's just that Modula2 is pretty much a dead language here in the US outside
of education.
