I've been on the look-out for a unix Pascal compiler, preferably one that would
let me write programs for the X window system.  I know of FreePascal and gpc.
Last time I looked at FreePascal I think it was limited in terms of target
platform.  gpc is almost certainly more portable and may even give me access to
a graphics toolkit such as gtk+.  Do you know of any alternatives?
