The following console program (with a slight typo) drives the compiler ballistic.
program Project3;
begin Writeln('Hello); Readln; end.
Can you give more information? Backend version (gpc -v)? OS (uname -a)? Compiler output or behaviour? Etc.
My gpc-20050331 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, based on gcc-3.4.3, gives a proper error message:
foo.pas:4: unterminated string or character constant foo.pas:4: possible real start of unterminated constant
