TO> Are there any Pascal compilers for OS/2, that can
TO> fully handle ALL Turbo Pascal 7/DOS code,
I have virtual pascal v1 b8 or something (dunno what the latest version is,
i haven't been able to find anything but that) and it handles pretty much
all of the TP/BP commands, with a few execptions (like the val() procedure
only uses longint's (or something) and instead of sound(a) delay(b)
nosound; you just use PlaySound(a,b);
there's some quick ways around these tho..
procedure DoSound(hz, dur:word);
begin
{$IFDEF OS2}
playsound(hz, dur);
{$ELSE}
sound(hz);
delay(dur);
nosound;
[$ENDIF}
end;
etc...
TO> including things like its internal ASM support?
It supports ASM, but.. being a different operating system, it doesn't
really some of the asm stuff.. that's where i have the most problems when
making an os/2 port.. for the most part it's just a simple matter of
loading into VP, and then maybe making a couple varible type changes, then
you can compile..
