I have enjoyed my ST 1040.  Knowing Pascal I decided that I
should start programing in pascal and then at a later date
I will decide wether I need to move up.

I do have one question about OSS pascal.  Has any one been able 
to use the write or read procedures to access any thing remotely
resembling a record file.  Documentation says it works.

Has any one gone to the trouble of generating an index for the manual.
Who knows why there is no manual.  Also how about a fuller description
of the regular pascal commands.  Nice to have this as a reference.

Does any one have any usefull libraries.  Math,graphics,string etc.  
It seems stupid for us all to be rewriting these things all the time.


Is this all to much to ask for.  If not there is more...
