I still have legal copies of Turbo Pascal 3.0, 4.5, 6.0 and Borland
Pascal 7.0, so if there's interest, I'd be willing to take a look at
them to see if there's any insects to weed out.

Speaking of which. I noticed that pretty much all Borland Test-mode
IDE's for Turbo-C, Turbo Pascal and Turbo-Prolog react very sluggishly
in FreeDOS while working okay on MS-DOS and PTS-DOS. Anyone got a clue
what might cause this?

Cheers, Danilo
