BPCOMPAT v1.10 -released!

Wed, 22 Oct 1997 14:25:36 +0100

Hi all

I have just uploaded BPCOMPAT v1.10 to agnes (in the contrib
directory). You can download it as; 

ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/contrib/bpcompat.zip
and
ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/contrib/bpcompat.txt

This version contains some bug fixes, and some stuff to improve
portability (especially of the SYSTEM unit). Users of Linux and
unix systems should find that the SYSTEM unit will now compile
("__UNIX__" is now predefined for Linux, Solaris, and FreeBSD -
other unix users will need to define it manually).

There are probably still some remaining bugs, and the package is
still not a complete replacement for the BP RTL. However, things
are improving.

The ZIP file has been restructured (with a directory tree) so
that the files are easier to locate and manage.

The package needs improvement, and all contributions are welcome!

BUGS
----
If you find bugs, please try to fix them - but please report them
to
me as well. If you fix them, please let me have a copy of the
fix.

Happy coding!

Best regards, The Chief
