I am porting SUN Pascal code to GNU Pascal. When I first read the GNU Pascal documentation (the pdf manual), I was pleased to see that GNU Pascal strings were in fact records with the length and the string text: this map perfectly with SUN Pascal VARYING[..] OF CHAR we use, since it is a record with 4 bytes for the length and an array of char. So, no porting problem...
Then we need to correct the documentation. Where exactly does it say so? (The manual is long.)
