This brings back memories of one of the more 'serious' things I wrote in Turbo 
Pascal (for DOS) before moving on to C, which was a mouse-driven application 
launcher for my sister's PC.  That was the first thing I used where I called 
interrupts (to interface with the DOS mouse driver), and although it started 
out with a hand-built data file for defining each of the applications in the 
launcher menu I did eventually add on a data file maintenance (add/edit/remove 
entries) subsystem which was also mouse-driven.  It wasn't exactly enormous, 
but it was the largest project I wrote in Turbo Pascal.

I was also an early adopter of the multi-monitor workstation once I got VGA - I 
had a Hercules clone MDA adapter and an amber monitor off to one side of my 
desk.  You could switch between your colour and MDA monitors using the DOS 
'mode' command, and Turbo Pascal (as well as Turbo C) had a dual monitor option 
you could enable where it would display program output on whichever monitor was 
active at launch, and the IDE interface on the other monitor.  This was 
fabulous for line-by-line debugging because normally TP would have to flash 
between the output screen and the IDE every time you hit the F-key for stepping 
to the next line, which was not only slow but you couldn't really see what had 
happened on the output screen.  With the output on its own monitor you could 
watch it as it changed, and the steps were pretty much instantaneous.  Fun 
times!

I also kept this dual setup when I was running OS/2, because not only did TP 
and TC still work fine with dual monitors in a full-screen DOS box in OS/2, but 
you could leave something running in a DOS box in the background which you had 
full-screened and switched to mono, and it would stay on the mono monitor for 
you to keep an eye on it when you hit Ctrl-ESC to go back to the OS/2 GUI.  
IIRC, I think Turbo C for OS/2 also would let you output a text-mode program 
full-screen to the mono monitor even though it was a GUI-based IDE...

Never used Pascal myself, but a co-worker wrote me a File Management
program that started AutoCAD, on MS-DOS 5 under Windows 3.11 and passed
startup commands to it. Borland Turbo Pascal had a nice facility for
starting another DOS Shell in which you could start another program with
full memory available to the program, including the 386K of Extended Memory
in a 1Mb system.

I was programming assembly for 8080, Z80, 8088, 80286, Data General
minicomputers (Nova II, Eclipse S230),; C, C+ on Z80 and IBM PCs; as well
as BASIC, Compiled BASIC and Visual BASIC on any computer supporting it.

Peter

You have to know how to build, submit and run jobs, and monitor them as
you go.  Also, Jay Moseley's MVS distro is good, but is not exactly the
same as the "real" big iron, because of copyright issues.  So you'll get

One of the things I want to spend my dwindling supply of round tuits on is 
picking up some big iron skills.  I even got as far as spinning up the tk4- 
Hercules distribution so I can have a local MVS environment on an emulated 
3033.  I have no idea where to even begin learning, though.  My entire life,

Oh, I can't resist... :-)

Yep, I did COBOL too, busted away from it for a few years, and then a
year ago went back to it.  Fun.  How about some mainframe assembler?
It's been a while but I could probably cobble a program together.

Then there's BASIC, Pascal, C, some C++, Java, not to mention the
various scripting languages, AWK, sed, BASH, etc.

Did some Z80 assembler too, but I never got into the 8080 or Motorola
side of things...

Oh mentioning "Borland" triggers a memory... I totally forgot about some
Pascal work I did!

Long ago I created an invoice tracking system in Delphi for my Dad's
printing business. This was a combined Pascal compiler / database / GUI
framework (Rapid Application Development) system for database centric
turnkey applications. The system I made was used for a while.

Also we managed some mail-merge type content for booklets for one of his
customers in Delphi.

I think that was my first real "work" project. Though I didn't technically
get paid for it.

Re: [M100] compile and execute Turbo Pascal (Stephen Adolph)

[Jonathan Yuen]

I (we it was with my wife as a PhD student) wrote a lot of simulation modelling 
stuff (with time delays and dispersion and a lot of other things) in Turbo 
Pascal, both in CPM but even on the PC.  I eventually moved a lot of those 
things over to Unix, stripped out the Turbo Pascal stuff, ran it through p2c, 
and compiled them with GCC.  I  don't think the server with those things is 
still running, but I thought Pascal was easy to read, if nothing else.

I can write things in R one day and the next week it takes me a couple of hours 
to figure out what it does.  So I've learned to break things up and comment 
everything in absurdum...

Back in HS, I used the UCSD "P-System" Pascal compiler on our Apple][e

In college, we used Modula2 for anything beyond the basic classes. I never

interested in FORTH and C. (And once Zortech C++ came out, C++).

Re: [M100] compile and execute Turbo Pascal (Stephen Adolph)

[Brian White]

Wasn't there something about pascal or maybe just turbopascal that it was
uniquely efficient on x86 or z80? IE it wasn't just an arbitrary language
like any other language, it was especially well matched to the cpu, which
was why for a while nothing could touch it.

Or maybe it was just thanks to some limits where if some things have hard
limits like fixed max sizes or levels of recursion etc then there are
various ways you can probably cheat to do the job faster.

Like others here most of my Pascal was written for my high school classes, 
about 1986 or so for me.  I used the language a little subsequently as some of 
the BBS software I played with in the early 90s was written in Pascal and I did 
minor customization.  I have not used the language professionally with C, Perl, 
and Python making up the bulk of my remunerative work.

Re: [M100] compile and execute Turbo Pascal (Stephen Adolph)

[Josh Malone]

My first programming class (in high school, 1994-ish?) was in Borland Turbo
Pascal on a 386. I remember liking it enough to pirate a copy and continue
playing with it on my home PC (also a 386 by then). But then next year
myself and about 5 other students arranged to continue the class
(officially there was only one "CS" class and it was in Pascal) with an
outside instructor who taught us C. Never touched Pascal after that, though
I keep thinking I should check out Kyan pascal for my Atari 800.

Professionally, I use perl, php, bash and domain-specific languages though.

I taught myself Turbo Pascal on a Kaypro 2X and wrote a fairly

I wrote some Turbo Pascal code in a programming class in High School,
because that's what the teacher was showing us sample data structure code
in. At home I was programming in BASIC, C, a little 6809 assembler.

But I wrote a lot more Ada in college since it was their official language
at the time. A Pascal like language, but with support for generic types.

Most of my career, and these days, C#, C, JavaScript, Perl, Bash.

I thought so, I just wanted to be sure.  Now I understand what you meant about

Well, that feels good!

I finally got Turbo Pascal 3.01 configured (well enough) and running on Model 
100!  And I compiled and ran a demo provided by Borland.  Sweet!

Setup:
REXCPM 2MB
M100 CP/M (modified to remove 8085 undoc opcodes)
Dual CPU board with 80C85 and NSC800 (socket at CPU on M100)
Dual Main ROM adapter (need a specific mainROM for each processor)

Hmm, I haven't programmed in Pascal since Freshman year in college. Back 
then it was my favorite programming language (I hadn't learned C yet).  
Not sure I would even recognize it now.  :)

I’m not sure if you’re saying it running on the 80C85 or the Z80?
