Not really. This is what the FAE told me when he did an introduction on
NIOS. I understand
Pascal is not useful for doing FPGA design, but for using the NIOS CPU
that is programmed into the FPGA (using some HDL tools). Especially when
this CPU runs Linux, Pascal might come handy for certain projects or
programmers.
