TDI has just released a new version of their MODULA-2
compiler, version 2.10a, with significant improvements:
... desk accessories are now supported
by linking the desk accessory run time support
module GEMACCX.LNK in place of GEMX.LNK
... desktop-like user interface
... one-step procedure to compile and link
... improved editor
... etc. etc.
We paid 25 pounds UK for the update.
They also offer a developer's tool kit, including
a symbolic debugger and a resource construction tool
called RSCMAKER. But we have not seen it yet.

I intend to write a mini-review of the MODULA compiler soon.
If you mail your comments to me directly, I will try to
include them in the review.
Disclaimer: I could care less about TDI's profits.
Claimer: ... but I *am* interested in promoting MODULA-2.
It certainly beats PASCAL, FORTRAN (what's that ?),
and even C (if it weren't for UNIX) and ADA
(M-2 is much smaller).
