Subject: OSS PEEKs, and user support...

A few days ago I sent out a question about the ability to PEEK and
POKE using Optimized Systems Software's Personal Pascal.  Last night
I called up OSS's own BBS, and lo and behold, I found a wealth of
information on Pascal.  Not only did I find PEEK and POKE routines
for Byte, Integer, and Long_Integer, but I also found STR and VAL
routines as well as a patch to fix some small bugs in my version
of Personal Pascal and I even downloaded a function that returns
the address of a procedure (useful in interrupts, I guess.)  I
would like to congratulate OSS for its great user support, and
for maintaining their BBS, which has so much valuable data online.
I plan on calling the BBS every month or so now just to keep up
on the new developments.  Very impressive guys, keep it up!
