Message-ID: <3335@dartvax.UUCP> Date: Thu, 11-Jul-85 12:10:44 EDT Article-I.D.: dartvax.3335 Posted: Thu Jul 11 12:10:44 1985 Date-Received: Sat, 13-Jul-85 10:41:36 EDT Distribution: net Organization: Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH Lines: 10 Although it is true that pc does not have an otherwise clause, pxp, when given the -O option, will translate the case statements appropriately. [I think the keyword in Pascal is `others:' to get it to do this.] This is what the TeX distribution does, and it works fine. If it works for TeX, it'll work for almost anything. I think this applies to both 4.1 and 4.2 bsd, but maybe just 4.2. The -O option is undocumented, of course. [Like having to use -J for long jumps to work correctly.] karl@dartmouth.csnet dartvax!karl
