>Also anyone got any links to find Alice Pascal ?? ALICE has been up free for a while, go to: http://www.templetons.com/brad/alice.html (Alice was my Pascal learning environment and nifty integrated development environment) from the mid-80s. To my pride and surprise, even though it's 15 years old, it still has many features and abilities that cause people to use it, particularly to teach, even today. Anyway, since people were still interested, I pulled out the source, and even though I hadn't compiled it since about 1988 on a very different platform, I was able to get it to compile and run on Linux (Red Hat6.1) and it probably can be made to run on most modern Unix systems. So I've put that source up for free. There's a link on that web page. It's still a bit dirty, still a few bugs to iron out. Not by any stretch a clean "type make install" setup. But for those who might want to play with it, or see the insides of a syntax directed editor, a Pascal parser or a very fast interpreter work, feel free to try it out. I've put it under Perl artistic licence. If somebody is interested in performing further cleanup, making an RPM, getting the MS-DOS source or even the Atari ST source (which was a GUI version, most suitable for modern porting) they can let me know. If you're writing a Pascal processor or interpreter, the "apin" parser, also included, turns Standard and Turbo Pascal into syntax trees. Lots of other useful code in there as well. Have fun. -- Brad Templeton http://www.templetons.com/brad/
