Pascal will always have my heart. My first bridge outside Basic (I was stuck with a home pc so didn’t go down the assembly rabbit hole like others of my generation). Turbo Pascal’s IDE. Add it possible for a kid to learn and create in a way I never would have done if stuck with a collection of semi independent tools. for those who say just use the command line - this was 1989. DOS was not exactly today’s modern shell environment! | ||

I guess today is Pascal's day. This website is full of goodies for anyone that cares about history of Niklaus Wirth created languages. | ||

Simlar language, compatible with MSDOS, CP/M and Unix: | ||

Early versions (3?) could fit an amazing editor, assembler, compiler, debugger and whole IDE in just 120kb(!!!) of disk space. Vim looks pathetic in comparison to it... | ||
