   Language elements that make programming easier
   for people used to Pascal language


   1. a) Pascal for Instruction

         Syntax :

         for var:=expr1 to expr2 do instr;

      b) Extended Pascal for Instruction

         Syntax :

         for var:=expr1 to expr2 step expr3 do instr;

      Note : variable can be floating-point


   2. Begin/End

      You can use begin/end instead of {/}, because in the language
      definition begin and { are defined as beginblock and end and } as
      endblock.

   3. := <>

      You can use := instead of = and <> instead of != (but in conditional
      expressions you should use ==).

   4. Pascal case Instruction

   5. Comments

      You can define comments as you wish in the language definition file.
