   Thank you Mark. I will try to keep some lessons going. I got confused over the   
   semi-colon, thank you for setting it right.   
      
   I hope to get at least some users compiling Free Pascal code and hopefully   
   kick start some Free Pascal development for the BBS community.   
      
   Free Pascal can work with some Turbo Pascal 7 or Borland Pascal code and I   
   think 2.6.0 added some Object Pascal as well. I will just start out with the   
   basics and not get into objects and save objects for later.
