Description

A 16 bit Pascal development system that compromised an editor, p-code interpreter and native compiler for OS/2 and DOS. Pecan SSI. had acquired the Softech Microsystems catalogue n 1985 from Network Consulting Inc. and with them a license to the USCD Pascal compiler and p-code runtime for the IBM PC, and in 1986 released them for a number of systems and added a number of guest languages for the p-code system, initially FORTRAN and BASIC, but later also C and Modula 2. But most notably they lowered the price to USD 79.95, which was more in line with Turbo Pascal that what traditional peddlers of UCSD Pascal systems which usually charged five to ten times that amount.
