Orca/Modula-2

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. RCA/Modula-2 is a Modula-2 compiler written in the Modula-2 programming language for the Apple IIGS computer. It was developed by Peter Easdown during 1993-1994 and published by The Byte Works. Whilst originally developed separately, when it was finally published, it was fully integrated with the development platform/environment called the Apple Programmers Workshop or ORCA/M. The compiler was originally developed using a version of TopSpeed Modula-2 on an Intel 80286 based PC. The output of the compiler at this point was 65816 assembler source for assembly by ORCA/M on the Apple IIGS. Once the compiler was stable enough, the IBM PC was decommissioned, and all development was done on the Apple IIGS.
