Interesting.  I'll have to look more carefully at the release note.  It
doesn't look compatible with either ISO pascal or ANSI pascal (unless the
phrase 'standard features' refers to one of these standards instead of J&W
- I doubt it, some of the 'extensions' appear to contradict features of the
two new standards).  I don't fault the people who wrote this new compiler.
They probably used the only standard which is really universal - J&W.
Looks like they are ahead of the others anyway by allowing multitasking.
