[comp.lang.pascal] QuickPascal Environment Variables?

Environment variables for QuickPascal
=====================================

Does anyone know which MSDOS environment variables, if any, that affect
the execution of Microsoft's QuickPascal compiler, and those that affect
the runtime execution of programs compiled with this product?

I have gone the RTFM route with the documentation but can get no clear
information.

By contrast, the Borland TurboPascal product creates executables that
look for an environment variable named "87" at runtime, to determine how
floating point code is to be executed (i.e. use the 80x87 co-processor,
or else fake it with emulation code).

The Borland TurboC product also behaves this way, while the Microsoft C
compiler responds to the "INCLUDE" environment variable.

Any leads?  Thanks.
