P.S. "awayscore" IS defined as an integer, in case anyone is going to
ask me if I've defined it cor

Donald,
What happens if the "Mighty Ducks" or the "White Sox"--or my
favorite, "Eat at Joe's" play? The compiler reads strings just fine
but you as the programmer need to understand data types. You also
need to understand your problem. Parsing arbitrary and possibly
inconsistent psuedo-English

I'll have a look at that as well. Why doesn't the compiler have the
ability to read a word? All of this extra code needed because I have to
read words one character at a time! It would be the single most useful
addition. I don't understa

Or you could wrap it around a Perl script. Perl is particularly good at
parsing text and generating arrays from strings and vice-versa. And then
you can call your Pascal-generated code from within the script using the
array elements as arguments, liek this:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
my @arguments;

That was the missing piece of the puzzle. Thank you (and to Anton too)!
