MetaWare Professional Pascal
(Redirected from Professional Pascal)
A Pascal development system from MetaWare that ran on DOS and VAX/VMS, with editions later appearing for AT&T UNIX. Professional Pascal has full cross-development features, any version of a PP host can generate code for any other version, however you had to purchase a full compiler for each system to take advantage of this feature as each development system only came with code generation and libraries for its host system.
Professional Pascal is available for Sun-4, OS/2, and UNIX System V R3.2.
