[fpc-pascal] Announcing PUMA Repository

[Johannes W. Dietrich]

With immediate effect the PUMA Repository (Pascal Units for Medical  
Applications) is available from SourceForge and berlios. The PUMA  
Repository is a collection of Pascal units for medical informatics. It  
is compatible with and was developed for Lazarus and Free Pascal, the  
units are partly also compatible with other Pascal dialects including  
Delphi and winsoft Pocket Studio.

Currently, PUMA delivers two packages:

The Unit Converter is a Pascal unit that provides functions for  
parsing quantitative instrumentation readings consisting of  
measurement values and units, as they are required e.g. in clinical  
chemistry. It also supports conversion of measurements from one unit  
to another one, e.g. to deliver results of laboratory investigations  
in different physical formats.

The HL7 Engine is a collection of Pascal units that provide functions  
for parsing and compiling HL7 messages. Additionally, it supports  
reading and writing messages as files or streams. HL7 is a global  
standard for exchange, integration, sharing, and retrieval of  
electronic health information. It is increasingly used in hospital  
information systems and public health administration.

Both packages come with test cases for FPC Unit. The HL7 engine also  
contains a demo application in form of a fully functional HL7 message  
browser.

Reusable sourcecode and documentation are available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/puma-repository/ 
  orhttp://developer.berlios.de/projects/puma-repository/.
