- Hallo!
-
- In Ulm, we use it to modify the mtc from the GMD. It is very good, flexible
- all what we (you) want.
- To do this, I portate the whole ToolBox to a VAX under VMS.
-
- To measure the quality of the ToolBox, it is a good thing to tell about the
- difficulties we had to portate it. This was minor!
- The tables of the parsers have sun-format and after the transfer with the DNI-
- Software I only need a little C-Programm (20 lines) to convert it to VAX-
- format. The next time the parser and the scanner create themself their own
- new table in VAX-format.
- There were also a lot of minor changes within the Modula-2-sources because
- your compiler (from ModulaWare) is "stronger" as the Mocka-Compiler.
