>>Borland Turbo Modula 2 was a CP/M product, never actually sold under >>Borland's name. >>Borland decided to adopt most of the principles into an enhanced Pascal. >>The Turbo M2 team went off to JPI I believe. Well I tend to agree with above statement. Turbo Pascal is like a mix of Modula-2 and Pascal. They took some of the Modula-2 procedures and mixed them freely with Pascal. (INC and DEC come to mind first) However, it would have been nice if Borland had finished it themselves, I never really liked TopSpeed's implementation. At first I found the compiler/editor really convienent. Eventually I went back to Turbo Pascal (Around 6.0) because there really were no good libraries readily available... unless you count buying a product blindly via a magazine ad.
