[fpc-pascal] Any command line interpreters for Free Pascal?

[Andrew Pennebaker]

Yeah, I know to chmod my scripts before dot-slashing them. It's just that
fpc can't handle shebangs, and I don't want to have to choose either
scripting or compiled. I like my Pascal code to be work in either mode.

Cheers,
