PMOS is a large library of Modula-2 modules, distributed in
source form.  Its primary purpose is to make it easy to
write multitasking programs for real-time and/or embedded
applications.  However it also contains a number of modules
of interest even if you don't want to write multitasking
code: screen windows and screen graphics modules, various
device drivers, and a variety of utility modules.

PMOS is free for non-profit use.

As distributed, PMOS is written for use on IBM-PC compatible
hardware; but large parts of it are portable.

To obtain PMOS, fetch the file pmos21.zip in this directory
(don't forget to set binary mode for ftp transfers), and
unzip into a disk directory of your choice.  If you don't have
a suitable unzipper, fetch the program unz50p1.exe from this
directory.  If you are not running MS-DOS, look for the
InfoZip unzipper for your system at one of the popular
ftp archive sites.

After unzipping, you will find another README file among the
unzipped files.  Read it for further installation information.

If you have trouble fetching from this site, look for pmos21.zip
