One of the better (best?) practical references for Pascal that I have found is
a book called "Oh. Pascal".  It provides usable code (Pascal, of course)
segments for all kinds of neato things that every programmer uses, e.g.,
binary search algorithms, various sorting techniques, etc.  It is written in
unconventional English, and for a programming text that means it is readable
and usable rather than techie language.

I agree with your assessment of APW C, and have (temprarily, hopefully) shelved
it until a better release.  Maybe it is just me, but the code produced is
huge and SLOW.  My preference now is Orca Pascal (just released by Byteworks)
over TML (both versions).  Orca Pascal appears to be very clean, compact, fast,
but suffering from lack of documentation for the more esoteric (read as use of
tools, special calls, etc.) stuff.

Have a nice day,
