My compiler's coming long nicely. If anybody's keeping track (and thank you for that) expect an alpha release version by Friday next week by the latest
As of now I've decided on the name "Unimal," short for "Universal Machine Language" to pay homage to older languages and because I gave Unimal an older syntax model.
The first official release will compile to a custom bytecode I hope to develop before then.

Have a good day everybody

HIVEMIND: Does anyone have a copy of the TopSpeed Pascal 3.10 compiler?

I've discovered something. I can't unsee it. So now I have to follow it through.

The [TopSpeed] Pascal compiler could also be used to develop software for the Psion series 3 in a roundabout way if used with the PSION s3 SDK, as the environment allowed you to develop Pascal code with C code, headers and libraries you could get functional s3 apps by linking the Pascal code with the required C headers/libs and then compiling everything with the PSION SDK, in rare cases needing a little bit of glue C code.

Does anyone have a copy of TopSpeed Pascal? I need to try writing Pascal software for #EPOC16. The documentation would be really handy, too.
