Here's what Roger Carvalho says about FST Modula-2 version 3 (I got
this directly from the FST BBS in Texas, on September 12, 1992) ...
Sorry for the continued delay. The release 3 code is now finished
and fully tested -- I encountered a few problems last week during
regression testing...
The documentation has been updated, although the chapter on OOP
still needs work. Monday I will e-mail my OOP documentation to Pat
Terry for his review (he does not know it yet!); I will be going
out of town tuesday. I doubt that I will need more than 2 or 3 days
to fix the OOP documentation, once I receive Pat's feedback.
What all this means is that there will be a release 3.0 by the end
of next week!
You may start sending your checks :-)...

FST-M2 v3 adds OOP, with single inheritance. This makes an already
excellent shareware compiler even nicer.
The registration/fee for FST-M2 v3 is US$50, which includes mailing
to anywhere in the world. Registered users of earlier versions may
upgrade to v3 for US$10. The FST mailing address is...

I'm now on FidoNet, with access to their Modula-2 conference. If
you're there too, do drop me a "Hello."
