I just downloaded Dev-Pascal and I'm just having a few problems. I was wondering if anyone could just point me in the general direction. I am just trying to get a simple output from the program so after dealing with the no icon problem I put the following into my file

Program Hello;

BEGIN
writeln('Hello world!');
readln; {To freeze the program}
END.

When I compile and run the project I get Compilation Completed in one window and then I get a compiler and linker output window that is blank. Can someone tell me what I', doing wrong?

  Nevermind I got it to magically work somehow.

Very few people here use Dev-Pascal, so you may have to wait a while.

While you are waiting, you could work-around your problem by coding it in C++ ;-)

Seriously though, I think Dev-Pascal has had even less work done on it recently than Dev-C++. It will only get lonelier in the world of Pascal I think.

Hi Everyone:

I'm not sure what the problem is.

I copied your code and it works fine here.

The easiest thing I can think of is to uninstall Dev-Pascal and then reinstall it. Make sure that you don't install it in any folder that contains spaces in it like "Documents and Settings" or "Program Files" as this will cause all kinds of problems.

See Ya
