I'm looking for a pascal compiler for the 3b1 under Unix Sys 5 ver3.0 that
is compatible (as much as possible) with the following standard:

VAX Pascal (3.6), which is compatible with: 
	
	PASCAL [ISO 7185-1983(E)]
	ANSI/IEEE770X3.97-1983

Alan Pfeiffer-Traum @ University of Houston (pfeiffer-traum@oak.uh.edu)
told me that this version of Vax-Pascal "contains extensions to the
standards."  [Of course it does; Pascal isn't very useful otherwise.  -John]

I'd prefer a pd compiler that is roughly compatible with the above --
sans VAX extensions, of course.  Not knowing too much about pascal
at this point (I need the compier so I can start learning it) I
hope I've given enough relevant info.  If not, flame me in email, please,
:-), and I'll rewrite my specs.
thx
