Art,
What would be best, I think, would be for VM to be an inherent part
of the Amiga OS; that would provide a great benefit to all software running
on the Amiga, don't you think? Unfortunately, from what I understand, it
would only prove feasible with an MMU, which is missing from any systems
not using accelerator cards with the MMU on board. Alas! Well, as for my
problem, I'm not sure what the best direction is. Modula and C both have
positive and negative characteristics, but software maintenance and
modularity seems to weigh more favorably with Modula. The array concerns
are less important with C. Both languages represent, for me, a substantial
time commitment for learning, Modula more so than C, but the differences
are not substantial. I have the next year off for my sabbatical, so
perhaps the learning problem is an appropriate task for my leisure time!
