There is separate executable gpc.exe for compiling Pascal code.

There are 2 versions available for DJGPP:

	v2gnu/gpc20b.zip - old version usable with gcc-2.7.2.1 (some time ago 
			it was said it is for masochists and archeologists only)

	v2gnu/egcs/gpce112b.zip - version usable with egcs-1.1.2 (don't try it with
			gcc-2.8.1). So if You wan to use it You should upgrade to egcs-1.1.2.
			But note that this is beta version and for some included units
			additional packages are needed. See readme files for more info.
			You will need also to install v2gnu/egcs/gcce112b.zip (and also other
			files if You want other languages)
