Abstract
This paper describes the design and implementation of a practical programming environment for the Modula-3 programming language. The environment is organised around an extensible intermediate representation of programs and makes extensive use of reusable components. The environment is implemented in Modula-3 and exploits some of the novel features of the language.

A framework for extensible languages
GPCE '13: Proceedings of the 12th international conference on Generative programming: concepts & experiencesExtensible programming languages such as SugarJ or Racket enable programmers to introduce customary language features as extensions of the base language. Traditionally, systems that support language extensions are either (i) agnostic to the base ...
Euclid and Modula
Both Euclid and Modula are programming languages based on Pascal and intended for writing system software such as operating system kernels. The further goals of each language, however, resulted in two rather different languages. Modula is meant to be ...
