Description

A PIM4 compatible Modula 2 and Oberon 2 compiler and IDE for OS/2 that was called just "Canterbury Modula-2" or "MHC Modula-2" even though Oberon was supported as well. Came in two versions, "Regular Edition" for OS/2 Text mode and PM development (Sold for £59 UK or $99 US) and a "Professional Edition" that also allowed SOM/WPS development via a built in direct to SOM compiler (Sold for £89 UK or $149 US). In addition the company offered a free library for extended compatibility with TopSpeed Modula-2 and sold an assembly coded MATHPAK 87/32 specially adapted to the compiler.

Note that while the company still appears to have a website it is a personal website of the lead developer, the actual company ceased to exist around 2001 and Mr. Neuhoff no longer offers any support for the compiler and exited the programming tools market altogether around 2010.
