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! ************************************************* * Jim McCabe * * G34 E.
