Has anyone found a fix for the following bug in the pascal compiler? If someone has found a fix I would like to know. Thanks T. Bradshaw (utcsri!qucis!tb) Description: Pix blows up on the second real number read from stdin. More precisely, the first real read following the read of a real number entered with a decimal point will fail.
