Is it possible to run the IIe version of Apple UCSD Pascal by

If so what if any IIGS files do I need installed.  I already know
how to use the Apple Pascal on a IIe or IIe emulator but I
want to be able to boot it up and run it from within a IIGS that
has already been booted up.
Note that you'll need Pascal 1.3, as previous versions will not
support 3.5" media.

Of course, it'll work just fine on 2 5.25" drives, but you'll wish you
found 1.3 ...

Has anyone been able to get Pascal 1.3 to boot off a 3.5" disk ?



My Pascal 1.3 came on both 5.25" and 3.5" disks. Have you tried formatting a 3.5 and copying all the files to it? I have also successfully booted 1.3 off my CFFA, on a II+ no less. You won't get any ProDOS partitions (or it will trash the Pascal FS), but it makes for a fine Pascal environment. I ran FORMATTER on APPLE3: and it did the right thing. I just copied everything over from floppy. I would think the same thing would work to a 3.5" destination.
