Well, let's do the standard:
Pascal:
program

WriteLn ('Hello world.');
end.
Class: What does program mean? Does the name matter? Does it have to be the
same as the executable? Why is there a colon at the end of the line - isn't

What do you need from STL ? What is lacking ?
I program daily and, disregarding GUI classes, all classes I ever needed are

Good to hear that. Do you see any problems coming on the Pascal side?
We might be limited in our options on the political side, but on the
technical side we might be able to remove a few arguments out of the hands
of Java advocates.
