By far the most likely reason for that to happen is that you installed mismatched versions of gpc*b.zip and gcc*b.zip. They must be from the *same* version of GCC, since gpc*b contains only those parts of the GNU Compiler Collection that are specific to Pascal. The ground work is all in gcc*b.zip, the C compiler package. > > gpc filename.pas Do 'gpc -v filename.pas', and thoroughly read through what it prints. If you still can't make heads or tails of it, redirect it to a file: redir -eo gpc -v filename.pas > testcompile.log and show it here. -- Hans-Bernhard Broeker (broeker AT physik DOT rwth-aachen DOT de) Even if all the snow were burnt, ashes would remain.
