Program
Pascal/VS is a Pascal compiler operating in MVS and
VM/CMS. Originally designed as a high level program-
ming language to teach computer programming by
N. Wirth (circa 1968), Pascal has emerged as an
influential and well accepted user language in today's
data processing environment. Pascal provides the user
with the ability to produce very reliable code by perfor-
ming many error detection checks automatically.

The compiler adheres to the ~urrently proposed ISO
standard and includes many important extensions.
The language extensions include: separate compilation,
dynamic character strings and extended I/O capabilities.
The implementation features include: fast compilation,
optimization and a symbolic terminal oriented debugger
that allows the user to debug a program quickly and
efficiently.

This manual describes the implementation of the lan-
guage by this compiler, and is intended as a reference
guide for the Pascal programmer.
