MOTTO is a source to source Modula-2 Translator for the classic Modula-2 dialects described in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th editions of Niklaus Wirth's book "Programming in Modula-2" (PIM) published by Springer Verlag and is intended as a replacement for the venerable MOCKA compiler. Due to a backend generated by an undocumented proprietary backend generator, MOCKA will forever be limited to the Intel x86 32-bit architecture; therefore, a replacement that is platform independent and 100% open source is desirable.

MOTTO will translate source files written in the classic dialects, including language extensions of the MOCKA compiler, to semantically equivalent source files in C99 and Modula-2 Revision 2010 (M2R10). ISO Modula-2 will not be supported.

As of April 2023, the project has been repurposed from its original objective and scope. Rework will take some time.
