Hi,
The pascal compiler 'pascal' in sequent is an extended version of
the language. Does anybody know whether the standard berkeley
pascal compiler 'pc' exists for sequent. In our installation if we
type'man pc' it would come up with the appropriate manual page(which
is significantly different from the manual page for 'pascal'). But
it isn't there in the machine. What we have is 'pascal', the
sequent pascal compiler. Could somebody over there tell us whether
'pc' for sequent exists. If so how could we get that.
Thanks (in advance)

Yes, the Berkeley Pascal compiler 'pc' has been ported to Sequent Symmetry and is available. You can request it by contacting your friendly Sequent salesperson in your local Sequent sales office. (Please note that this compiler may be part of standard Berkeley Unix distribution, but it is not ANSI standard Pascal. Customers who want ANSI [ISO level 0] standard Pascal should order Sequent's Pascal compiler product model number LNG-0311-04, which is a superset of ANSI Pascal.)

If so how could we get that. Yes, it does exist. After much pressure from our site, they finally released it as of this past June. (We told them we wouldn't buy their machine with out it) Most of the work for this was done at Ohio State and they did a very nice job..only one bug so far, something minor but I can't remember what it is. I'm not sure of the status of the bug either. -- Steve -- Steve. sfreed@ariel.unm.edu
