[fpc-devel] compiling something does not work

[Alexandre Racine]

Hi guys, I am new here so don't be too much hard on me :)

I am trying to compile this 1992 software msim.p from the FASTSLINK family.
You can get it here... wget http://watson.hgen.pitt.edu/pub/fastslink/fastslink.tar.Z

I have attached the msim.p file.

So, am I doing something wrong? Is this an actual pascal file? Is 1992 too old? :)
Thanks.
