   Was looking into Modula-3 and Oberon because of an Ada thread. Apparently Modula-2 is in use in places and GCC v13 included it.

   GCC v13 was also rumored to be including Rust, but that compiler doesn't do Hello World yet, so it didn't make it.

   GCC v12 added Go support.

     Looks like there was no GCC v13.0?

     This thread /via www.theregister.com/2022/12/16… which also mentions the later shelved ambition to get Rust into GCC v13.

     @Digital Mark λ 📚 🕹 💾 🥃 Yeah, it's just a month old yet.

     What would you use Modula-2 for? Curiosity, or do you have tasks you think it would be especially suited for?

     @clacke I did just download GNAT because of some #Ada threads. I have never used #Oberon, #Modula-2,#Modula-3 ( or even #Modula-1 ), but I did use #Pascal in the late 1990s.

     @clacke I also saw people talking about the main #Rust group threatening trademark complaints against gcc-rust. I did not follow any links to learn more.

     @Digital Mark λ 📚 🕹 💾 🥃 Have you played with FreePascal?

     @LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} Pascal was my second language after Basic. I got a book from the library and did some paper programming. Later in high school the programming class was in Pascal.

     The Data Structures and Algorithms course at uni used ADA.

     @LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} They're calling it gccrs in the link above, dunno if that's before or.m after any trademark claims.

     > The GCC 4.7.1 release and all later 4.7 releases include a complete Go 1 compiler and libraries.

     
     go.dev/doc/install/gccgo

     @Ludovic Courtès Oh wow, ok. I had no idea.

     It seems that what's new in v12 is that GCC includes the Go standard library?
