Modula-2 is NOT dead!!! So what if some time there is a lull in the conversation? That only means that everyone is doing well and has no outstanding questions. There are currently more M2 compilers for the Amiga than C compilers. Hopefully they'll catch on. So please keep this section going. Down with C. Long Live M2! – Steve –

Hear, Hear. It is great that there is a Modula-2 section here on Amigaforum, and I agree that M-2 will catch on. There is a very active (albeit small) group of M-2 programmers on Plink as well, and it would be a shame to force all the m-2 action off this board. // Jim s

Hey, no, we would never "force all the M2 action off this board"! Realize that M2 is the only language with it's own message section. There was a very good reason why that happened, and that reason evaporated shortly after the section was set up. Steve is simply trying to decide if this section can be better used for another subject. M2 users wouldn't be forced off; they'd just go back to using the Programming subtopic, just like the AmigaBasic programmers and the C programmers and the Assembly programmers and all the other programmers do. In other words, Don't Panic. 8) Rick

If there is some pressing need for this area, then I could go along with losing it. On the other hand, having to read headers and press CTRL-O to skip messages is tedious. On the other other hand, it might be good for me to HAVE to read messages about BASIC and C. 🙂 /Jim
