GNU Pascal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GNU Pascal (GPC) is a Pascal compiler comprised of a frontend to GCC, similar to the way Fortran and other languages were added to GCC. GNU Pascal is ISO 7185 compatible, and it implements "most" of the ISO 10206 Extended Pascal standard (according to the manual).
The major advantage of piggybacking GNU Pascal on the GCC compiler is that it is instantly portable to any platform the GCC compiler supports.
