I have implemented most of the Borland extensions -- and some other stuff -- into GPC. My extensions include:

• Units
• Compiler directives
• Bit manipulations: and, or, shl, shr
• Increment, decrement, min, max
• Absolute variables
• Objects
• User-definable operators

The modified sources are available on kampi.hut.fi in the directory /gpc/turbo-alpha. I am looking forward to receive your comments. :-)

Awesome. Good job Peter!

'Tho I wish somebody would finish up the Extended Pascal portions of GPC. I'm trying to steer myself away for using the Borland "standard" (or non-standard ...).

Well, at least now we got a "Borland" Pascal compiler for Linux (there is a Linux version, right? I've only recently switched from OS/2 to Linux ... but I'm pretty sure I saw a Linux version last time I was on kampi.hut.fi ...).
