FAQ v0.2

24 Oct 1996

      Ok folks, I updated my first attempt at a FAQ a bit, and did some very 
crude Texification, so a html version exists too, which I sent to Peter for 
the homepages at agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de

Let me know if you find any errors or sections that need clarification.

   GPC is currently *not* a drop-in replacement for Borland's Turb
Pascal (R).  It supports a number, but not all of the Borlan
extensions to the Pascal language. There is no replacement for most o
the Borland runtime library functions. GNU Pascal is part of the GN
project, so portability is one of its primary goals.  For this reason
non-portable features of Borland Pascal will probably not be include
into GNU Pascal. More information can be found in the section "Borlan
Pascal" of the GPC manual

   A number of unix configurations use their system's linker instead o
GNU ld. Usually, GPC and GCC need a program called `collect2' befor
calling the system's `ld'. `collect2' is installed by GCC, and if yo
only install GPC, it will not find collect2, and use the system linke
directly, which will result in various linker errors. The solution i

run.  You can either use one of the commercial DPMI servers (e.g., ru
