- Hi Seth,
-
- I have the ETH Modula2 compiler version 3.2.2 from the home of the guru
- himself. It's available at several sites, including:
-
- <ftp://neptune.inf.ethz.ch/>
- <ftp://baikal.ethz.ch/pub/mac/RAMSES>
-
- I am not sure if these sites are still functional. In the UK try:
-
- <ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/packages/info-mac/>
-
- and navigate to the "development" directory.
-
- It's not a bad implementation, but all the pre-written interfaces are designed
- for an ETH system with graphical origin at bottom left (the Mac being top
- left). There are hints for developing a true Mac interface. It's all freeware
- except for the Medit macro editor which is shareware.
-
- I have tried developing a true Mac interface as an interesting exercise to
- learn more about the tool box. Since I moved to System 7 it has got more
- difficult. I may yet abandon it!
-
- It realy depends on your needs. Good luck to you.
-
- Regards, Shane.
