Thanks for the offer, but if I cared that much I would just download the
Apple Pascal files from Asimov and do it myself.

Its been at least 15 years since I worked with Apple Pascal too.  I expect
that a lot of problems that seemed 'unsolvable' back in those days would be
"no problem" at all now--whether due to updates (a.k.a. fixing bugs) in the
software or improvements in skill level.
