Example source PAS.PAS: MODULE PAS; (*$INCLUDE:'NOTHER.E'*) PROCEDURE PAS; BEGIN END; END. Further more PAS.PAS is in current directory. NOTHER.E exists nowhere. DirectoryINCLUDE does exist. Example command line: pl -IINCLUDE -c PAS.PAS Results in invalid machine instructions which crash my 386 machine.

I remember seeing "benchmarking" data for various 68k Pascal compilers. Included in this data was the code size of a "null" Pascal program, and information about whether or not the "null" program ran when compiled. Many did not! I thought this was ridiculous until I compiled a null program with my compiler, and watched the executable crash... Perhaps any null program will crash with MS Pascal? Eric Terrell (att!druhi!terrell)
