- smith@ctron.com writes that he is interested in finding the source to
- the Oberon compilers.
-
- The source to the Oberon compilers is not publicly available however,
- you can license the front end and/or the back end for the Oberon-2
- compiler from ETH for 1000 Swiss Francs. The license agreement does
- prohibits you from redistributing the source, but you are free to do
- whatever you want with any derivative product, provided you give ETH
- credit for the original compiler source.
- You are also required to make ETH aware of your product, and provide the
- product to them should they ask. It does not state if it needs to be
- source or executable code, however.
-
- It is a pretty loose agreement, but not so loose to hinder ETH.
- 1000 SFr is about 757 dollars, as of last month.
-
- If you would like the entire text of the license agreement, let me know,
- and I will be happy to type it in.
-
- smith@ctron.com also writes that he has seen code for all of Wirth's
- other languages. I am interested in finding the source to an M2
- compiler, and if there are any (in M2 preferably), please let me know.
- (Preferably a free one).
