there is a compile option for win95 but I never managed to compile any
project worth mentionning.

mistake. There areat least 6 pascal compiler for os/2 that I know of:

-Stony Brooke: outdated, 16 bit
-patch of BP 7.0/7.01 made by German C'T magazine: 16 bit only
-SP 1.5 / sybil 2.0beta : I like SP 1.5 for native os/2 prog
-VP 1.1 : I found 1.0beta easier to port dos programs to os/2 but prefer SP
for native stuff
-TMT has 3 version: dos, dos extended and os/2. Never compiled anything

to spend hour to change the code, which i'm not. (see www.tmt.com)
- FPK freeware created by a German student. dos/os/2 and linux. most
advanced is dos 0.63 or something, os/2 was halted at 0.52 (you have to
find that one to get the os/2 units) and I never saw the linux version
anywhere else than mentionned in the doc. (if anyone has seen it somewhere,
I would appreciate. I'm running kernel 1.13 and should upgrade to 2.0 next
week :-))
Still a lot to work on, but useable (even more imo than tmt which is commercial).

There is also the GNU pascal project: I only have the linux version, but
somebody is bound to have attempted an os/2 port :-)

OS/2 Warp does today what Microsoft wants to do in 1998!
