#Pascal

Borland is going to be coming out with Turbo Pascal for the Amiga. When is a
good question. Keep your eyes peeled. – Bela PS: it should make program
development a whole heck of a lot >easier< than with C (at least Lattice C).
You'll have to use it to see what I mean.
Turbo Pascal is my favorite development tool by far (for high level
programming at least.) I was hoping it would be available soon after the
Amiga came out, because I'm tired of 64K segmentation limitations on the PC,
which can be gotten around, crudely, by pointers to heap space, but does
still limit the actual code size in memory at once to 64k.
There's a good chance I'll write a resident Pascal compiler myself with
certain low level hooks that Borland doesn't support, but that is a long term
project, although I have written a similar compiler for a structured BASIC
for Z80 output.
