It is not free and not PD, but there is an inexpensive M2 system for the
pc.  It is the FST by Roger Carvalho.  It can run on a 2-floppy system
but is much preferable on a HD system.  It can be ordered from:

		Fitted Software Tools
		P.O. Box 867403
		Plano, TX 75086

or you can download it from his BBS at (214)517-4629.  The registration
is $29.  For $49, you get the latest version plus the source to the
run-time libraries.  If you can ftp, it is also on our host via
anonymous login:

		turing.ctc.contel.com

in the files fstm2a.arc, fstm2b.arc, fstm2c.arc, and fstm2d.arc.  Simtel20
only has the 1.3 version.

The system comes with a turbo-pascal-like built-in editor, automatic file
make, and a makefile generator.  All-in-all, a very comfortable system.  I
used it in a translator construction course and it performed well.
