Become a GNU Pascal beta tester!

If you are curious how the next version of GNU Pascal will look like, be invited to join us in beta testing. Just download the most recent version from ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/beta. Do not forget to join the GNU Pascal mailing list if you do so!

We have significantly improved both the compatibility to Borland Pascal and to ISO-10206 Extended Pascal. For a detailed list of changes since version 2.0 see the file NEWS.detailed (42 kB ASCII). Beware - there are lots of changes! ;-)

Co-workers wanted!

GNU Pascal is a compiler under construction. If you want to be independent of companies you must pay for getting a compiler with more restrictive licensing conditions that only runs on one operating system, be invited to join the development team.
