Well, the last time I had done any serious Pascal development was 1978,
using a version called Kayan Pascal that ran on 8-bit Ataris. It was
strictly ISO standard. Prior to that, I had done quite a bit of work
using UCSD p-System Pascal for the IBM PC. In more recent years, I
played around with a copy of Turbo Pascal for CP/M that I bought for
$10, but that was mainly for an old Televideo system I had rescued from
the trash. I was hoping that my daughter would use it to learn
programming, but I couldn't get her that interested.
