Warning: After downloading the 13 part Modula-2 compiler from MACSERVE@BITNIC, I ran into the following problem. After running the compiler and loader a while, I went into the HyperDrive Manager and tried to Create a drawer. BOMB, ID = 3. Oops, I thought. Humm, I'll just delete the Modula-2 drawer. Nope, when I went to delete the drawer I had n folders named MODLIB where n was approximately equal to the number of times I ran the EXEC 512 image. None of these drawers were deletable, although some contained over 4 million files :-). Some even were protected by passwords. I tried running the disk test utility, but that uncovered nothing. The only solution was to re-format the HyperDrive. So, I would be wary with the ETH compiler with my configuration. Does anyone have the newer ETHZ comercial product and use it on a Mac+ with an HFS drive? If so, I would appreciate hearing from you. Cheers.
