* Introduction *
*******************************************************************************
PASTERP is a PASCAL-like interpreter, with an embedding interface to
Borland PASCAL programs. Now you can enhance your applications by providing
an easy to use and powerful extension language to your projects.
The language parsed by the interpreter is a subset of PASCAL, with
syntax enhancements that make it easier to read. In most of the constructs
the PASTERP language is also more forgiving than PASCAL.
PASTERP is a commercial product available from HyperAct Inc. This package
is a demo of PASTERP that implements the simplest available PASTERP enabled
application, one that has a simple interpreter that can execute one
program at a time from the dos command line, with no extensions.
We have included complete documentation to the PASTERP language, and
partial documentation to the PASTERP interface to Borland Pascal applications.
