Pascal FC 2 - Introduction

In my classes on Real Time Operating Systems, I started using the original version of Alan Burns' Pascal FC. After some time, the need for extending this wonderful tool was felt. Particularly, some limited grafical capability would be welcome (be it in text-mode).

The original version is also available, though not recommended because of several incompatibilites with modern Pascal compilers.

To allow more expressive programs, I added some constructs from the original Borland Turbo Pascal series (clrscr, gotoxy and similar). This allows a much broader gamma of visual tricks.

I generated executables for Linux and DOS (32-bits), which can be downloaded from the doanload page. The changelog documents the changes and additions. Yet another page contains the definitions for the additional functions.
