Turbo Pascal Resources

[Eightbitswide]

It's probably been at least 3 decades since I really looked at Turbo Pascal, and that was the DOS version.   I've been spending the day reading and poking around it with to find 3.01a to be an extremely powerful tool for CP/M machines.

I thought I'd share some of the resources I've been working through...

First, this website is a solid jumping off point.   It has all the information to get started, including a link to the manual, (which by the way there are several copies available from various Amazon sellers.) 

Also, this Youtuber gives a good introduction to the language itself.

With a little work, I was even able to get the screen to look like I remember it back in the day on the  DOS version.  (Changing the highlighting commands to yellow.)

I've created a FabGL include library for the sound/graphics commands in Ansi Terminal.

The library and examples can be found here:
