Re: Pascal for ZX81

So, I took the scans of the Partial Pascal manual, converted them to one PDF and hired someone on Fiverr to do the initial retyping. The Fiverr person did a pretty good job; I only had to do some light editing throughout the document. Attached is my first pass through. I've started marking up the te...

The red stripe on the cable in the photos is pin 1 of both connectors (there’s a small triangle to indicate it on the end that connects to the interface). Notice how on the centronics connector (blue) that it aligns to one side and ...

Re: Pascal for ZX81

Have not tried it. I have figured out who wrote it, going to reach out to him soon.

Semper went on to make Modula-2 for the Mac.
