[M3devel] Modula-3 bitfields

[Daniel Alejandro Benavides D.]

Hi all:
Yeah, but don't worry Modula-3 by Harbison is on-line (write me an email and I'll tell you url) in a public site, SPwM3 is almost but last chapter is presumably in other hands (the so-called lost video tapes), and the other two books are (OK are not totally on-line, but bigger part are available from archive.org).
I was trying hard to compile SPwM3 in one file, but the more I see it, I guess we need to remake it from tex, to avoid non-ocr parts, as Greg Nelson said that was already available, we have already the C.1 - Introduction, C. 2 -Language Definition, and need C. 3 - Standard interfaces, C. 4 - An  Introduction to programming with Threads (available from MS-Research in C# syntax but everything else is same), C. 6 - I/O Streams, C. 7 - Trestle Tutorial, are almost in source tree, it will just miss C. 5 - Thread Synchronization (but is one of the smallest < 20 p. I believe we can make a revised copy based on current Interface specification after we get a copy of ESC/M3).

It needs a bit of work I guess, but if some kind soul is wanting to do this I will let him do it.
The only needed book is Algorithms in Modula-3 (but there is a German script of very good quality from U Aachen) so, it's not too bad but sure will be nice to recover it from somewhere (I heard it was used to develop complete Algorithm Animations, which would be perfect for Mentor)

Thanks in advance

Oh thanks. I'll try to get a copy of that if it is good. I did download most
of the SRC stuff but have no idea when I'll have time to look at it.

I'm trying to get a few books before they all disappear.
