Hi John,

I've just got the January edition of one of the UK more technical
computer magazines and one of the main development software distributors
advertisments mentions:



Warp into OS/2 with Pascal
Prospero have released their first 32-bit Intel compiler with OS/2 as
the first target. Their Extended Pascal is ideal if you want a securely
typed compiler language. For a limited period we are virtually giving it
away at ONLY 110 pounds. Cabot have ported their 32-bit power system to
OS/2 as well so you can choose between UCSD and Extended Pascal.



The price quoted for the Cabot "Power System + Pascal (32-bit)" is 270
pounds.

The distributor is "Grey Matter" and they have a box in their advert
headed "OS/2 WARP"... :-) At Last.... :-).

I'll chase up details after the holidays are over.

Grey Matter are on:
