Several people have sent mail asking for information about Version 3.0 of
Logitech Modula-2.  Logitech currently has an ad in several computing magazines
(e.g., _Computer Language_, p. 15) which describes some of the new features.
I gather from this ad that the new debugger is a mouse-based, multi-window
system, that the new linker only links the routines that are actually
referenced, that the new compiler generates DOS linker compatible object
code, and that the new editor sports miscellaneous improvements in user-
friendliness.  Up to this point, I've been describing the IBM-PC release.
A new release (Version 4.0) of the VMS compiler is expected around September
26th.  It's rumored to be completely compatible with the IBM-PC release,
which would be a welcome change, but I don't have any details yet.
