    It's this way at least since Turbo Pascal (though without classes then ;) ).


Yes, I agree this is the TP/Delphi way, and as such should be kept at least in
DELPHI mode.

and TP mode, of course ;)

But is this really good? Doesn't this contradict the Pascal
philosophy? Borland did a few questionable things (look at how you used the
semicolons in you examples above ;-) ),

i can't see anything untoward with their use... they are statement separators, after all ;)

and it took some decisions when
implementing units. But how is this handled in Modula?
