Here in germany I am aware of 3 Pascal compilers, all commercial.
I have experience with the compiler of Prospero and I like him. As all
Prospero languages, Pascal is a complete development kit, including a
editor, compiler, library manager, source code debugger. The kit is full
integrated in GEM, well documented (in english :-) and conforms to the standard
(level 0, no conformant arrays).. Optional you can get libraries for 68881.
Prospero has distributor in the US.

I have no experience with the other compilers; all I know is that the doc's
are in german.

P.S. Does anybody know, whether there is a company working on a Pascal compiler
     for the new IEEE stamndard ?
