Summary: Metacomco plc Pascal

I recently received a letter from MCC regarding their Pascal product
status.  In regard to the next release of MCC Pascal for the Amiga
they state..

"We are now working on the final stages of our next release of MCC Pascal
for the Amiga.  Unfortunately, we have not decided price or date of release
.  When we have this information I will let you know.  In the meantime the
following will give you some idea of what the new compiler offers.

	single and double precision floating point arithmetic
	full 32 bit pointers
	sequential and random access files 
	dynamic strings
	conditional and separate compilation
	OTHERWISE in CASE statements
	binary, decimal, octal, and hexadecimal integer and character
								constants
	I/O error handling
	interface to graphics

There will also be an improved manual."

I would be glad to pass along any information I receive from MCC in
future.
