  This is directed to CSPT@giraffe.ru.ac.za, but may be of interest
  to all Modula-2 enthusiasts ...

 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 :-)...

    Roger

 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...

    Fitted Software Tools
    P.O. Box 867403,
    Plano, Texas 75086,
    U.S.A.

 The FST BBS number is (214)-517-4629  (they use PCBoard v11.8a/S).

 Hey, whether you write or call, tell them Greg Vigneault sent ya!

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