I know of one Pascal compiler for the Amiga, "POWER PASCAL". A friend of 
mine purchased it from a local Amiga dealer. It is a fairly old version
and neither I nor my fellow Amiga users thought it was very good. It works
best with a hard drive of some sort. It's editing system doesn't  use
any one the Amiga's menu functions, etc. It looks like a nearly direct 
port from an IBM type compiler somewhere out there. It's probably been 
updated by now, but the answer to your qauestion is yes..... there is at 
least one Pascal compiler for the Amiga out there.
