       wvv> It's an ancient language. ;)               Yes, but all you need to do is to add # or + after it, and it's a completely       brand new and fantastic language, really! Or you can add a period/dot       somewhere in the middle, like Pas.Cal and you'll have tons of gurus swearing       by its greatfulness ... :-\               wvv> The only time I seriously used it was during my study, more than        wvv> 30 years ago. I forgot most of it's details, I probably couldn't        wvv> write a simple hello world program if they put a gun to my head.        wvv> ;)              Traditional Pascal *is* quite stale, but was used a lot to teach people       programming ...               wvv> But I did some simple changes to the errflags program recently,        wvv> which is written in pascal. Making changes to existing code is        wvv> much easier...              :)              Whatever gets the job done.                             -joho              ---        * Origin: code.code.code (2:20/4609)    |
