I looked over the documentation for the Abacus Super-
Pascal compiler with a friend who wants Pascal for his
C-64, and I could not determine the following:

	- When executing a program that uses input files,
	  how/when/where do you tell it the name of the
	  file(s) on disk to use?

	- Given that a string variable in the program
	  contains the name of a disk file that needs to
	  be opened for input, what Pascal statements
	  will cause the file to be opened?

	- Can a compiled Super-Pascal program be run from
	  outside the development environment (from the
	  main command-level)?

Do you know of a good Pascal compiler for C-64?  The main
considerations are execution speed and flexibility in
dealing with files.

I would greatly appreciate any answers.  I prefer replies
sent directly to me, unless it is not convenient, then
just reply to net.micro.cbm.  Thank you,
