Wirth (3rd edition, page 81) says: "... a procedure declaration appears as a special kind of constant declaration, the value of the constant being a procedure." It follows that it should also be possible to make a procedure declaration in the CONST from. This makes sense (and becomes particulary useful) when one imports a procedure and exports it back after renaming it. definition ...; FROM ... IMPORT procedureABC; CONST XYZ = procedureABC; ...; My specific question is: Is such a construct allowed? If not, is there any other way to rename an imported procedure and export it (other than explicitly making a call to the imported procedure in the new procedure): implementation...; ... procedure XYZ ... procedureABC...; end; ...; Thanks in advance for all the responses. -- Mukesh Dalal Voice: (201)-878-1763 Dept. of Computer Sc.
