Pournelle1. Relax. Borland has dropped the "extra charge" for licensing fees. 2. I doubt you actually read what I said, since you ask questions that were answered in the article itself. 3. SORCIM didn't encourage (allow) distribution of PRUN because they didn't want to support it and all the programs that would be written in it; and indeed, they have ceased to sell PASCAL/M entirely, which is a pity, since it was a good teaching language; but they decline to support it. I gather there are some negotiations between Workman and SORCIM that might lead to Workman becoming a source of Pascal/M; but no details. I never heard of a case where SORCIM tried to STOP anyone from distributing PRUN; but they sure wouldn't explictly allow it.
