Sat 3-Jul-93: I have updated my Frequently Asked Turbo Pascal
questions and answers collection. I added four new items bringing
the total up to 45 questions, edited some of the old ones, and moved
the bibliography to a file of its own within the collection. The
bibliography is called FAQPASB.TXT. Also added "INFO-PAS.TXT using
comp.lang.pascal by email". The collection is now
garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/ts/tsfaqp13.zip.
Mon 31-May-93: Since I detached my Frequently Asked Turbo Pascal
questions from my general news/programs FAQ a couple of weeks ago,
it has been more natural to maintain and add new questions to my TP
FAQ. The TP FAQ garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/ts/tsfaqp12.zip now includes the
information in two parts. They TSPAS.TXT and TSPAS2.TXT where the
former contains 30 questions, and the latter continues on from that,
currently up to 41 questions. This is a major update. Besides adding
several new items to the collection, I have added much information
and clarifications to many of the old items. Hence a tsfaq11.zip
version was skipped altogether.
Sun 16-May-93: My tsfaq33.zip Frequently Asked Questions has grown
to be quite large. Therefore I have decided to divide it into two by
separating the Turbo Pascal questions from the ordinary UseNet news
and program related questions. The two entities are both available
from the garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/ts/ directory:
tsfaqn34.zip Questions from UseNet and Timo's answers
tsfaqp10.zip Common Turbo Pascal Questions and Timo's answers
