Hello! My name is Janet Casey and I'm working for the Free Software Foundation assembling a database of free software world wide, which is why I'm writing to you. We have this address listed as the maintainer for 'gpc'. Can you take a quick look through the information I've assembled to see if everything is correct and if there's anything I should add? I'd appreciate it greatly. FYI- a short explanation of some of the fields. Programs- any additional programs that come included with this one. Interface- Command line, interactive, X windows, console Support- listed only if it's something other than mailing list support Repository- Any CVS repositories where the program is listed Related- any GNU packages that might be of interest to users of this package Use Requirements- Required for using the executable Build Prereq.- Required for building this package Weak Prereq.- Useful (but not mandatory) to install before building this one Source Prereq.- Packages whose source code must be present in order to build this package. Please bear in mind that not all packages will have all the fields filled in (in fact, I don't think we've run across any yet that have all the fields filled in). If there's anything you think should be added (particularly individuals who have contributed) please e-mail me. Thank you very much for your help! %%name: gpc %%short-description: GNU Pascal compiler %%full-description: A 32/64 bit compiler without the 64kB or 640 kB limit found on certain operating systems (even if run on those systems). It runs on all operating systems supported by GNU C and can act as a native or as a cross compiler between all supported systems. There are a number of GNU extensions that help make the program portable. %%category: development %%license: GPL %%maintainer: <gpc-request@hut.fi> %%interface: Command line %%updated: 11 May 2000 %%keywords: Compiler, C, 32 bit, 64 bit %%GNU: yes %%web-page: http://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/~gnu-pascal/ %%support: %%doc: User reference manual available at http://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/~gnu-pascal/gpc-doc.html %%developers: Jukka Virtanen, Peter Gerwinski, Jan-Jaap van der Heijden %%contributors: Alexey Volokhov, Bill Currie, Frank Heckenbach, Matthias Klose, Nick Burrett %%sponsors: %%source: ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/ %%debian: http://www.debian.org/packages/stable/devel/gpc.html %%redhat: ftp://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/gnu/pascal/gpc-2.0.tar.gz %%repository: %%related: %%source-language: C %%supported-languages: Pascal %%use-requirements: gcc, binutils %%build-prerequisites: %%weak-prerequisites: %%source-prerequisites: %%version: 2.0 released; gpc-19990118 beta on 5 Jun 1999 %%announce-list: gpc-announce@gnu.org %%announce-news: %%help-list: %%help-news: comp.lang.pascal.misc %%dev-list: gpc@gnu.de %%dev-news: v %%bug-list: bug-gpc@gnu.org Janet Casey Free Software Foundation www.gnu.org jcasey@gnu.org
