DOS ain't dead

Stony Brook (Pascal, Modula-2) (Developers)

You can't (legally??) find old Stony Brook compilers anymore, but I still thought it was interesting (see author, apparently sold company to Saperion in 2004).

Stony Brook Pascal+ for DOS ... TP6 compatible, highly optimizing (but slower compiles)? Came with (shareware) TechnoJock Object Toolkit (see author), a cool-sounding competitor to TurboVision.

Apparently "Stony Brook" is a city in New York (state)? Same with Stony Brook University. And they had a Pascal compiler (IBM 360) way back in the '70s, which you can nowadays find (with simulator?) on SourceForge.

On a related note, ADW Modula-2 for Win32/64 is freeware and based upon Stony Brook Modula-2. (I also found some vaguely interesting docs about the old DOS compiler's support of overlays.)
