[net.micro.cpm] Turbo Pascal: Did I hear right?

Phil Lapsley <phil%ucbeast@Ucb-Vax.ARPA> (01/14/85)

     Did somebody say that Turbo Pascal for the 8088/8086 is
available under CP/M-86?  I hadn't known this -- could someone please
confirm or deny it?

Defintely available for CP/M-86; I got mine just after Xmas & had it up
& running in half an hour (reading the manuals).

YES YES YES!

Turbo Pascal is available for the following 4 operating systems:

CP/M 80 {8080,Z80}
CP/86     {8088/8086}
MS DOS  {8088-8086}
PS DOS   {8088/8086}

I'am using the CP/M-86 version on a DEC Rainbow 100
Limits under CPM/86
Source file block limit := 64K bytes if >64K use {$I file}
Code segment limit := 64K if>64 K required use overlays or chaining
Data segment limit := 64K
Heap stack limit determined by avail mem, no apparant limit
The compiler editor requires 33K of RAM

   My CP/M version works just fine.
   There do seem to be some interesting problems with stack 
   frames in procedures that call procedures but it could be 
   my machine.

The new Digital Research PC-DOS should be able to run either the MS-DOS or the
CP/M-86 version.  About the ONLY thing I have had trouble with is the MS-DOS
version of BASICA.
