One thing about this Pegasus Pascal - it is a precompiler for Orca Pascal.
I think Orca Pascal is quite good especially with the OOP extension. If
Pegasus Pascal is going to be a success, it has to offer something the user
requested. I have read the Pegasus Pascal readme, and it looks more like
another language that looks like Pascal but is not exactly Pascal. I would
hope for more OOP extensions, etc.
For me, anybody can build some objects on the desktop interface API would get
my money. GS+ did a good initial job, but then nothing follows.
