Hi:

Why use "free" Pascal?  Turbo Pascal is:

1       cheap.
2       reasonably well documented and supported by Borland.
3       very well Known by all and sundry.
4       fast and compact.

	If Turbo Pascal doesn't suit you, there is always 'NEVADA' Pascal by
Ellis Computing; however, this Pascal is somewhat simplistic and requires a
separate editor to create source code - where Turbo Pascal provides a nice
little full screen editor.  Ellis technical support ranges from nill to worse
than none; all in all I don't recommend them.  Turbo Pascal can be optained
with tutorial documentation and disks for under $100.00.

Why go with the obscure and generic when you can have a 'standard' without
mortgaging your life away?
