[fpc-pascal]Fw: RE: Toolkit

[Alan Mead]

Frank,

This is cool.  So, IIRC the original TTT sources have a whole lot of
ASM code (I don't recall if it was ASM blocks on, I think my use
pre-dated ASM blocks).  Computers are so fast today that I wonder if
it is needed; would we want to port the asm or just replace it with
Pascal?  (Hint, hint:  I only know Pascal :)
