        Hello, I'm a C to Pascal programmer. To this point, I'd just like to

say how excellent Pascal is compared to C. Reliable, incredible compilation

speed, excellent coding efficiency. I love it. At least till now:

        Ran into a problem that would be easy in C. I desperately have to 
figure out a way to dimension an array greater than 64K. If that's 
impossible, then multiple 64K array's without using excess unit files. In 
C, there's memory models to handle that, in Pascal...I don't know. Somebody

care to enlighten me?

        Question 2: Saw a program in BYTE called PASCAL+. Looks like my 
dream programming language. Says it's faster in both Compilation and 
Execution than TP (!!). Also, has C extensions: memory models, full pointer

arithmetic. Does anybody know anything about this?
