Welcome to the download page for Turbo Pascal for Dos 7.0

Due to the general unavailability of Turbo Pascal, I have created an easy-to-install version that should work satisfactorily on all 32-bit versions of Windows (with the exception of NT - XP/2000 should be fine)

If you have any difficulties with this download, please feel free to contact me by email, fax or telephone mailbox - see details at the bottom of the page.

To download Turbo Pascal 7.0 for DOS, simply click here, and choose to save the file at a location of your choice, or alternatively to run it directly.

If you chose to save it, you will need to locate the file using something like Windows Explorer, and double-click on the file to start the installation process.

Note that this installation has only been tested on Windows 95, 98, ME and XP. On NT 4, the mouse cursor stops working until you quit the program every few minutes!!!

Installation

The WinZip Self-Extractor will run, and then automatically start the InstallShield installation.

When asked for a program folder, choose the default and click on the Next> button.

Installation will commence. The files will be copied to the c:\program files\tp directory, and icons will be created.

Finally, a Setup Completed dialog box will be displayed, from which you can tick a combination of two options to view readme information, and/or launch Turbo Pascal.

Click on Finish to complete the installation process.

You may be left with an icon at the bottom of the screen saying that WinZip Self-Extractor is still running. This is OK. Leave this alone, and it will disappear and remove any temporary setup files with it within a few minutes.

Pascal may well appear in a window, in which case the writing is quite small. Note that you can use the mouse pointer within the window if you wish to use the window like this. Alternatively, double click on the title bar at the top of the window to enlarge it to the width of the screen. Alternatively, the Alt+Enter key combination will toggle you between full DOS screen mode and Windowed DOS screen mode.

Certain parts of Pascal (such as printing, and some of the lesser-used libraries such as Graphics) will not operate correctly, but this should not be a problem for most courses.

Finally, at the bottom of the file menu is a most-recently-used-files link to a file that doesn't exist! Ignore this. As you open files, you will notice that this list will grow until the incorrect link disappears completely. You can use this list to refer back to your most recently opened files. Very useful!

In Future, you will be able to launch Turbo Pascal by clicking on the Start Button on the Windows Desktop, click on the Programs> menu, clicking on the Turbo Pascal 7 submenu, and clicking on the Turbo Pascal 7.0 icon.
