The `Goto` statement

Free Pascal supports the goto jump statement. Its prototype is

var
  jumpto : label
...
Jumpto : 
  Statement;
...
Goto jumpto;
...

The jump label must be defined in the same block as the Goto statement. To be able to use the Goto statement, you need to specify the -Sg compiler switch.
