This page contains some Pascal source files and the related executable programs (for Windows 32-bit), written between 1992 and 1998. Being a little old, these source files can not always be compiled on the modern platforms without modifications. Often it is necessary to fix something here and there, such as changing the definition of variables. Moreover it's necessary to consider carefully the build environment, since the compilers typically use different libraries.

For example, when compiling a graphical program using Free Pascal it's necessary to make a choice: an option could be using the standard libraries crt and graph, with the disadvantage that keys must be pressed keeping the focus on the main console window instead of the graphics actual window; an alternative could be using the hybrid combination of wincrt and graph, with the disadvantage of not being able to use the functions Clrscr and gotoxy, and to have not access to the standard input in the main execution window. In this case it's necessary to write a custom way for reading keyboard inputs. An example of this approach is the integrate application.

For this reason, the Pascal source files listed below are divided into two categories: programs updated, verified and compiled (on Windows) are listed in the category executable (source and executable), while the programs yet to be verified, checked and repaired are listed in the sources category (only source).
For some tips about how to solve the most common problems of conversion from Pascal of the '90s years to the modern Pascal see the hints section.
