Yes, more commonly known "Berkeley Pascal". The manual, http://roguelife.org/~fujita/COOKIES/HISTORY/2BSD/puman.html seems to mention a certian "William N. Joy" as partial author, the big BSD pioneer and Sun founder. It seems to be a bytecode Pascal. (iow compiler + interpreter like UCSD) Afaik it can be found in old tars of early BSD versions online (at least I could a few years back), but it never migrated to the modern BSD after the Settlement, and afaik it is dead for twenty years. Throwing "Berkeley Pascal" in google will probably turn up some stuff. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
