Help, Pascal
Temporal
First of all, does anyone know where I can find an easy to use Pascal
compiler???
A nice editor along with it would also help.
Right now I downloaded a Pascal compiler from the deloris website
(gpc112b.zip), along with djdev201.zip, bnu27b.zip, csdpmi3b.zip. I'm
pretty sure I did every thing right including making a bat file with this
instead of messing with the config.sys file.
echo off
set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
PATH C:\DJGPP\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\DOS
cd\djgpp
Anyway, I tried compiling a simple program.
program first 'output';
begin
writeln('Hello');
end.
But I got these error messages :
gpc.exe : new.exe : No such file or directory (ENOENT)
new.pas : 1 : parse error before character constant
If anyone knows what's wrong, Please e-mail me.

Also try to make it correct:
program first(output);
begin
writeln('Hello');
end.
compile with gpc new.pas -o new

The phrase "Easy to use Compiler" is an oxymoron. They all require
you know command line switches.

Get gpc20b.zip, it fixed some bugs and other odities of 112,
and rhide makes an OK editor/IDE for you.

You shouldn't be setting these in CONFIG.SYS.

That should be all you need, as long as you unzipped
the archive using pkunzip -d -o archive.zip,
otherwise, delete all the files and try it again.
If you set PATH in your config.suys file, you can not alter it
with this statement, you must move it to AUTOEXEC.BAT and then
this statement will do what you want, or add the path to the
CONFIG.SYS line and don't worry about setting it in the batch file.
In any event this discussion belongs in comp.os.msdos.djgpp.
