	I think it should (and partly must) be done so.
	Implementing another "hybdir" language is not what I would
	like to see.

	I find that the extended pascal is a good language in itself,
	but I agree that there are far too many borland programs
	around to ignore them. (Also, the object pascal language
	looks nice and would be fun to support. Any volunteers? :-)
