[comp.lang.pascal] CoPascal

To Any and All,

This is not, strictly speaking, a Pascal question but I was hoping that someone
could help.

I am currently doing research at Hope College in Holland, MI.  I am currently
working on extending Concurrent Pascal (CoPascal) to run on a distributed Sun
network to fully utilize the language's concurrent features.  The culmination
of this project should provide educators with a relatively simple way to expose
students to various facets of concurrency from simple linear execution of a 
program, to concurrent execution on a single processor, to concurrent execution
on multiple processors over a network.

That is why I am looking for an implementation of CoPascal to run on the Sun.
I currently have a version written in Turbo Pascal but because of its many non-
standard features, the conversion to run on Sun Pascal would be fairly complex.
If no version of CoPascal is available for the Sun, I would be interested 
in obtaining a version of CoPascal written to run on VMS.

If anyone could send a copy of either version of CoPascal, please directly 
contact me.

Thanks for your help,
