MetaCompCo markets a Pascal Compiler that works.  I don't know how good
it is, though.  I bought the 0.9 revisions that wouldn't access *any*
ROM stuff.  No graphics, no windows...nothing!  The latest is Revision
2.0 that is supposed to support all of the ROM code and libraries and
structures and stuff.  I haven't seen a review of 2.0 but there was one
from several years ago on 1.25 which had some support of the ROM.

Hope this semi-sentient rambling helps.

PS.  I could be persueaded to part with my upgrade-able 0.9 Rev version
for $50.  Includes information on the upgrade to 1.25!  But a better deal
is to order it from the Software Shop (1-800-752-0050).  They list it for
$95.  7-Day Software has UCSD-Pascal for $249/449.  All this from the
March Amiga World.
