- GNU Pascal
GNU Pascal (GPC) is a Pascal
compiler comprised of a frontend to GCC, similar to the wayFortran and other languages were added to GCC. GNU Pascal is ISO 7185 compatible, and it implements "most" of the ISO 10206 Extended Pascal standard (according to the manual).The major advantage of piggybacking GNU Pascal on the GCC compiler is that it is instantly portable to any platform the GCC compiler supports; however, it also means carrying the
GNU build system and tools, which are pretty alien on major platforms like Windows.ee also
