   >Years ago (mid 80s - early 90s), I used to be a fairly proficient Pascal   
   >programmer using Turbo Pascal under DOS and CP/M (on Apple w/z80 Softcard and   
   >Microbee), and have written a number of applications, including a Morse tutor,   
   >which was initially written under DOS, but ported to the Microbee with the   
   help   
   >of a friend who owned one for the assembly code required to implement sound   
   and   
   >timing on that platform.

   >I haven't written any Pascal for about 25 years, though I did dabble in Java   
   >several years ago and am often scripting in BASH.  Anyway, I've got a few   
   small   
   >projects that could do with some code and after discovering Free Pascal, I   
   >figured it would be easier to relearn Pascal than learn something new to me   
   >such as C.  Things have changed though since those days! :)
