Subject: JRT Pascal released in SIG/M
I thought you would like to know. From this month's (DEC
82) issue of the "Amateur Computer Group of New Jersey News" in
the SIG/M Report column:
"JRT PASCAL came first with Ellis and others following.
The Pascal Z group took note of the non-commercial release provi-
sions of the JRT PASCAL and released it as their volume 18.
SIG/M is now releasing it as volume 82. We read one rave review
and one that said it wasn't worth the new price. We know of at
least one bug - try multiplying by 0, but we think for those of
you interested in trying a little Pascal, it is worth getting our
volume 82."
Hence, JRT PASCAL looks like it is *FREE* to me. If you
have a computer club which is already getting the SIG/M disks,
you can get it from them, or the SIG/M copying charge is $5/disk
+ $1/order (I think I misquoted $4/disk earlier). In further
confirmation, the following are the files on volume 82 of SIG/M:
ARCTAN.INT ARCTAN.PAS CONVERTM.INT COS.INT COS.PAS
CUSTOMIZ.INT DEBUG.INT ERASE.INT EXEC.COM EXP.INT
EXP.PAS JGRAF.INT JGRAF.PAS JRTASM.INT JRTPAS2.COM
JSTAT.INT JSTAT.PAS LETTERS.INT LINKER.INT LN.INT
LN.PAS PASCAL.LIB PASCAL0.INT PASCAL1.INT PASCAL2.INT
PASCAL3.INT PASCAL4.INT RENAME.INT RESETBIT.ASM SETBIT.ASM
SIN.INT SIN.PAS SQRT.INT SQRT.PAS TESTBIT.ASM
For those who already have purchased JRT PASCAL, is this
a complete list of the files?
Also, for those interested, ZCPR 1.0 and 1.6 are now be-
ing distributed on SIG/M disk 77. I also gave SIG/M ALL of SYS-
LIB, and it will take up three SIG/M disks all by itself. Com-
plete source to everything was included, as well as the huge do-
cumentation files and all the HLP files. I don't remember if I
gave them the new User's Guide, but if I didn't, it will come out
later. I don't yet know which SIG/M volumes SYSLIB will be in,
but I'll drop you a message when I find out.
