[Pas2js] The operator ??

[Michael Van Canneyt]

Because pascal has no null or undefined,  I see no value in this.

But when ternary operators arrive, you can use that. 
(x ?? 1) is just a shorthand for (x != null ? x : 1)

I wish to repeat that the goal of pas2js is to make pascal available in the
browser.

The goal is not to make pascal resemble Javascript.
