Acorn reckon they had a M2 compiler for their own internal use in the
early days, but they have no intentions of releasing it to us (I mean, the
Arc's so good, it doesn't really NEED a nice lovely structured language
like M2/3, does it? Acorn would rather we hack around in C)

All views expressed are mine only (except when I get in trouble for them,
when it's anybody's fault!)
