Hi Seth,
I have the ETH Modula2 compiler version 3.2.2 from the home of the guru
himself. It's available at several sites, including:
<ftp://neptune.inf.ethz.ch/>
<ftp://baikal.ethz.ch/pub/mac/RAMSES>
I am not sure if these sites are still functional. In the UK try:
<ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/packages/info-mac/>
and navigate to the "development" directory.
It's not a bad implementation, but all the pre-written interfaces are designed
for an ETH system with graphical origin at bottom left (the Mac being top
left). There are hints for developing a true Mac interface. It's all freeware
except for the Medit macro editor which is shareware.
I have tried developing a true Mac interface as an interesting exercise to
learn more about the tool box. Since I moved to System 7 it has got more
difficult. I may yet abandon it!
It realy depends on your needs. Good luck to you.
Regards, Shane.
