  Jefferson Software is evaluating Idris. We will put our Modula 2
development system up in the next few weeks.
  
  Idris looks to be a very powerful development system. It comes with
a lot of tools, and a huge library. The C compiler is very close to
the proposed ANSI standard. It has the POSEX standard library and a lot
of extra libraries to do IPC. It is currently in a 9MB partition on my
HD and runs on a 520 quite nicely. Dial up works and we will try using
the midi ports for a third line in.
  
  I did a quick benchmark and Idris looks comparable to the speed of
the Alcyon compiler. I will do all the benchmarks bammi did on Idris
including the dhrystone as soon as possable. 
  
  We hope to use Idris (* with other STs running minix *) to develop
in an environment that has tools and supports dial up.
  
  I am using this account cause I HAD to post, but do not have a feed
from Usenet yet. That should be coming. Till then, we love talking and

  Opinions expressed above are mine and not the opinions of Computer 
Tools International (206)838-4990 tell them I sent you, or Case
Western, or J bammi, or my dogs. However, my dog agrees that Idris
is pretty nifty.
