[unix-pc.sources] Pascal adnd Basic

johnb@lakesys.lakesys.com (John Burant) (10/22/89)

I'm looking for Pascal and BASIC compilers and interpreters anyone out
there has that can be run a SCO UNIX/386.

I've heard of something called pax, but have never used it, and can't
access it.  Does anyone know anything about it? Can you critique it?

I also know about pbasic... Is this free or does it cost money?
If it doesn't cost, does anybody know where I can get it?
 
Also, I have one (1) question: If I were to find something like this,
would I be able to put it in my directory and run it myself, and would I
have to get the sysadm to install it, etc. (because I've never done this
type of thing before)

(I know of pc, but that costs lotsa $$$)

Thanks.

pax is a superset of cpio & tar.  it also includes a few other useful
bells & whistles.  can't critique it; haven't used it.
