I'm brand new to the Modula world. I currently telnet to a Sun host running S5r4. Staying connected for hours at a time is frowned upon at Ohio State. And, I'm tired of typing text here on notepad, FTPing it down, telneting in to compile, having to type: /opt/epc/em2/bin/em2 -epc --g -o something.out something.mod My home pc is a Pentium 60/16meg/1.6g running Windoze er a Windows 95. I've been a C++ coder for 10+ years and have gotten spoiled by all the bells and whistles on my MS C++ v4.0. So after all that, here's a few questions: 1) Is there a good 32 bit Modula package for '95? I'm tired of 16bit win3.x garbage crashing my system every 5 mins. 2) Is there visual type Modula editor? 3) What's the difference between Modula-2 & -3? Can -3 use -2 code like C++ will use C? 4) I also run Slackware Linux. I would even be happy with a good Xwindows package. Do I have any options here? In sum, I basically want a one stop, easy-to-use, GUI based setup to gen some Modula-2 code. If anyone can help or would like to share with me what they use, I would be great full. ********************************** Mike Fulton - Training Coordinator 15 Lord Hall UTS Public Computing Sites 447-0537 home 4-4022 office **********************************
