Which case-sensitive one? It's Pascal code, and Pacal is case-insensitive.
That may have been a wise design decision in the 1970's when programs were written on punch forms and then typed out by card punch operators. Anno 2004, it is an anachronism.
So is the lack of `endif', and a few other things IMHO. We can't change the fundamentals of Pascal, I'm afraid.
