Have a look at the GPC web site.  It has an implementation of the
crt unit that is compatible with most Borland Pascal 7 code, and
has X extentions also.  Should just be a matter of using crt to
get it to work.  There is also a GPC mailing list, just
send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the command

subscribe gpc [EMAIL PROTECTED] 

as the  body of the message.

Re: Pascal

I feel your pain.  Not only is is not open source, it's *quite*
expensive, much more so than Windows Delphi.  We're talking $1K here,
for the *less* expensive version.

Also, there's apparently no driver for Postgresql, so there's no
connection to a full-featured free database.  Needless to say, Debian is
not supported either.  (Am I the only one who finds it offensive that
despite the above, they prominently link to www.fsf.org from the Kylix
page?)

I can't imagine who Borland is trying to target here.  It truly pains me
to say that, because I'm a Delphi lover who eagerly anticipated this
product.

(If you like Borland, Pascal 7.01 (for dos) is free, but with the

Thanks for the lead.  After a quick AltaVista search, I found Knizhnik's

I kind of doubt dosemu would be happy about your program trying to access

Take a look at FPC then.

http://www.brain.uni-freiburg.de/~klaus/fpc/fpc.html

Of the two, GPC and FPC, I much prefer FPC as it is written in Pascal and
tries to comply as much as possible with Borland's implementation.

I was looking at porting a pascal program from dos to linux.  Besides

There's also fpc which is my preference since it is built from itself

Debian has a Pascal compiler.  Look for the package gpc (and gpc-doc for

Alternatively, if you really want to run your DOS Pascal, you might try
dosemu.

Hmmm, I think I installed fpc initially with Debian 2.0 (which was what was
stable when I first installed). It worked fine with 2.1, but broke now when
I updated to libc2.1, which is strange.

The compiler is a static binary, and compiled Pascal programs are only
linked to the Pascal library:

$ ldd /usr/local/bin/2000 
libfpc.so => /usr/lib/libfpc.so (0x40004000)


Where can I find the source .deb from Debian 2.0 to recompile (can I get

No. This means that the original *.deb file is no longer available,
which is quite natural if you don't keep Debian CDs in your drive all
of the time ;) The word obsolete is somewhat misleading.

Recompile them and see if that helps. If not, put the 2.0 version of
glibc somewhere in /usr/local/lib, add this location to your
environment and to /etc/ld.so.conf, and run ldconfig. And make sure
your apps use the right linker.

I think there are some IDE's for Linux, but none seem to be as popular
as Emacs/Xemacs.  Emacs is not an integrated development environment per
se, but it has many of the capabilities of one plus other things.

Emacs has modes for C, C++, LaTeX, shell scripts, Matlab, and yes, even
Pascal.  font-lock-mode will give you syntax highlighting.  C-h m will
show key bindings for the mode that you are in.

So that the vi lovers dont flame me too badly, I have to point out that vim

RE: pascal.+development

[Patrick Ouellette]

You can find a new version of gpc in experimental.  It uses
egcs.  GPC should fit your needs quite well.  The version there
is "alpha" code, but is much more stable than the version that
you found using libc5.  There are a few bugs that are keeping it 
from being released as the gpc 2.1 beta software.

There is an effort to develop an integrated development 
environment similar to Borland's (RHIDE is the name IIRC).
But from what I have heard it needs a lot of work.

There may also be some emacs guru's who have similar functionality
(ide environment) available.

I don't do pascal myself any more, but I assume gpc, like gcc looks
at the file extention to choose what type of file it is. Obviously,
it doens't recognice ".txt" as a pascal file (I wouldnt' do that myself
eighter), and it chooses to assume it's a linker script.

Rename your file to eighter ".p", or ".pas" (I just don't know which,
but one must be the right one), and it should go OK.

'dpkg --status gpc' shows:

Version: 2.0-3
Depends: libc5, gcc (>= 2.7.2.1-2), gcc (<< 2.7.2.2), libgpc2

'dpkg --listfiles libgpc2' shows

/usr/lib/libgpc.so.2.8
/usr/lib/libgpc.so.2

You should have libgpc2 package installed.

The two major FREE Pascal compilers available are GNU and FPK Pascal.
I've tried them both, and IMHO GNU works much more reliable.
See for yourself. Their respective web pages lists FTP-sites and mirrors.
(btw, did you actually web search for this?? that is a very effecient
method which should not be underestimated)

GNU Pascal web page:

Thank you for your quick and kind answer =)
I'll try again today FTPing them.  Even our mail server (NTMail) yesterday
was having rather unusual (yet common) problems.   We have several Dual
Pentium Pros with 128 megs of RAM and they can barely run the applications
we tell them to.  One P166 is running everything by itself and has lots of
processing time left. It is embarassing.  I want to convert myself from a
Win95 to a Linux user.
As for Pascal, I would like to learn some programming for myself, but I am
not ready to go into C or C++ yet.. so I'll start from little =)

You want gpc and gpc-doc, about 1.5 mb total. If you can't get them by ftp
from ftp.debian.org or a mirror site, tell me what does actually work on a
WinNT server (http?) and I will see what I can do to help. I absolutely
hate pascal, but I'm compassionate :)

Um, I'm assuming you're using Debian, since you're asking in
debian-user.  (grin) Did you try the p2c package, which is a
Pascal-to-C translator?  Not exactly a Pascal compiler, however it may
suit your needs.  You don't mention it, so just in case you don't know
about it, here's a pointer. . . .

G'luck,
Kendall
