Software Tools in Pascal (Part 0 of 6)

Mod.sources:  Volume 2, Issue 6

Moderators Note:

    This is the README file from a distribution of software tools written
    in Pascal.  Some of the sources are from (or derived from) the book
    "Software Tools in Pascal",  and permission has been obtained from
    Brian Kernighan to post these here.  I have not tried to compile
    these myself, they seem to be tailored to a VM/CMS pascal.  Hopefully
    translation will not be too difficult.

Xfontinit.pascal contains a font definition - you should be able
Xto figure out how to build a driver for it.  It is in two pieces,
Xfontinit.A and fontinit.B (so that the batch is smaller than 50k).
XJust catenate them together.
X
XSome of these are from SWTiP, some I have written myself - these are
Xnoted in the headers.
X
XUsing this software (details for Pascal/VS on VM/CMS):
X	1) take the swtools.copy file:
X		convert it to Fixed 80
X		add line numbers in column 73-80
X		MACLIB it to SWTOOLS MACLIB
X	    swtools.copy is the complete set of include files required
X	    for building the tools. (from each *COPY to the next)
X	2) Compile all of the source that are "segment"s, and
X	   put the objects in a TXTLIB.
X	   These are library routines used by various programs.
X	3) Compile all of the source that are "program"s, and
X	   link them with TXTLIB.
X
XMVS users: you will have to change some of the I/O routines (the
Xones copyrighted by me) to use appropriate MVS functions.
X
XNon-Pascal/VS: you will have to convert the flavour of pascal to
Xwhat you have:
X	Pascal/VS supports separate compilations
X	Pascal/VS supports true strings (which I don't use much)
X	Pascal/VS supports includes
X	Pascal/VS supports fairly complicated initialized global
X		  data types, including binary constants.
X	You may have to throw out all of the I/O, some of the
X	include files, and include all of the routines for a given
X	program together.  Yech!  Good Luck!
X
XThis software is unsupported, however, upon request I may be able
Xto provide some hints.
