macOS Pascal for XCode?

Is there something available?

I don't remember specifically.

You should be able to find a Pascal compiler available in source code from the Free Software Foundation website. If it's compatible with gcc, it should output code that will be PPC compatible.

There is a company that makes translators for Pascal, Modula-2, and Oberon that create Java source code.

This is the parent organization:

And this is the info on the Mac version:

Wow, Pascal, that takes me back about 10 years! Did a lot of cool programming with that back in the day...

Here's the download:

And you must implement the Integration package that's listed for it to work under XCode.

Am downloading now; will advise about installation later.

Have downloaded the first; however, must read the ReadMe and follow through with download of the second:

Command Line Version (no XCode):

When you install the compiler, the ReadMe instructions are somewhat wrong: it suggests that if you see "fpc: command not found" then you have to do something with Fink.

You could do a CD /usr/local/bin and then a ./fpc and things will work nicely. I wasn't aware that typing fpc alone, without the ./, would still work.

Anyone with command line experience understand why?
