Thanks for the lead.  After a quick AltaVista search, I found Knizhnik's
home page at the address below.  If you scroll most of the way down,
there's a ANSI/Turbo Pascal to C/C++ converter section with links to the
source in .tar.gz

Hope this helps,

Hi, 

What distribution are you using? 
I remember that SUSE comes with a pascal compiler, about Debian I don't know.

Debian has a Pascal compiler.  Look for the package gpc (and gpc-doc for
the doc's).

Alternatively, if you really want to run your DOS Pascal, you might try
dosemu.

There's also fpc which is my preference since it is built from itself
while gpc uses, IIRC, parts of gcc.

 dosemu.

Speaking of dosemu, has anyone ever gotte lredir to work on a directory?

Take a look at FPC then.

http://www.brain.uni-freiburg.de/~klaus/fpc/fpc.html

Of the two, GPC and FPC, I much prefer FPC as it is written in Pascal and
tries to comply as much as possible with Borland's implementation.

Thanks: Pascal for Linux?

1998-11-26 Thread Alexander Kushnirenko
Hi,

Thanks for the info.  I just tried both.  IMHO Free Pascal is better, it knows 
Borland procedures from CRT unit for example, GNU does not (well that was 
not their goal, as they say).  Compatibility with Borland Turbo Pascal is 
imprortant to me, so I would prefer Free Pascal.

Free Pascal has RPM, but no DEB package I think we may want to have it...

Sasha.

 There are a couple of compilers out there... GNU has one, but I think
 this is a little better...
 
 (it's syntactically compatible with turbo pascal 7).

 I don't know if there is a deb package for this or not...  I haven't
 looked.

out to me).
I've been trying to download a PASCAL compiler for Linux and I've been 
unsuccesful.  Every site I've gone to either has the wrong link on their 
html or I am denied the FTP transfer. I am assuming that this is a 
problem with our WinNT server.  Anyone has ideas of where I could

engine which failed, and I also went on sunsite.

Thank you all for your patience and help.

Um, I'm assuming you're using Debian, since you're asking in
debian-user.  (grin) Did you try the p2c package, which is a
Pascal-to-C translator?  Not exactly a Pascal compiler, however it may
suit your needs.  You don't mention it, so just in case you don't know
about it, here's a pointer. . . .

I'll try again today FTPing them.  Even our mail server (NTMail) yesterday
was having rather unusual (yet common) problems.   We have several Dual
Pentium Pros with 128 megs of RAM and they can barely run the applications
we tell them to.  One P166 is running everything by itself and has lots of
processing time left. It is embarassing.  I want to convert myself from a
Win95 to a Linux user.
As for Pascal, I would like to learn some programming for myself, but I am
not ready to go into C or C++ yet.. so I'll start from little =)
