I maintain a list of information/useful software for Modula-2,
with a bias towards PC implementations.  The web reference is
http://www.eng.newcastle.edu.au/ee/Moylan/m2/Modula2.html.

Mike: your libraries sound like something that other people
could make use of.  If you are willing to make them available,
then it's worth putting them on an ftp server somewhere.
If this is the case, could you mail me (or post here) a WWW
or ftp pointer that I can add to my list?  If you don't have
access to an ftp server, I'm willing to put them on our
local server.

Another useful resource for this sort of thing is something
called the Game Programmers' Encyclopaedia.  I've lost the
address for this, but I'll try to track it down.
