Re: Verdix and Telesoft compilers for Unix.
I had nine graduate students banging on the Verdix compiler
(DEC VAX-11/780 under 4.2bsd) for the Spring semester and
we only found three very minor glitches that were worth
reporting (one was already known). I kept the only set of
manuals, the students used the online documentation system
which was obviously adequate since, after minimal lecturing
from me about the library system, the students had very few
questions to research in the manuals.
I was very pleased with the Verdix software.
The only Telesoft compiler I've used was an ancient (circa
1983) version. Any opinions on that system are best forgotten
since I am sure Telesoft's new Ada-based compiler is a great
improvement.
