UCSD Pascal – memories from the past….

Posted by jpluimers on 2013/07/10

Just found out that the kind people at BitSavers added some scanned USCD Pascal documentation in PDF format:

It reminds me of my early Pascal days on Apple ][. UCSD Pascal was so slow that I was glad to discover Turbo Pascal 1.0, which lacked some of the UCSD Pascal features (for instance cross platform – including Mac, almost 30 years ago! – and Turtle graphics), but was blazingly fast.

Trade offs indeed (:
