[Coco] OS-9 Pascal

[John Donaldson]

  I got the PASCAL package all working now. I did go into qp.b09 and 
change a few things. First I got rid of
 the PARAM Drive:STRING[3] and replaced it with DIM Drive:STRING[3]. I 
then set Drive := "/DD" .
I then added another READ from QP.init for the CMDS directory.  This way 
you don't have to put
everything into the /DD/CMDS. I put all of mine into /DD/Pascal_CMDS. 
Add some more PRINT
statements so I could make sure everything got loaded correctly. Bumped 
the Rev from 0.6b to 0.7.
Just in case someone does want to run the package from  /D1 or /D2, I 
could added another READ
from the QP.INIT  for the DRIVE varible.
   I want to thank all of you that sent email. If anyone would like a 
copy of my version of QP and QP.INIT,
feel free to email me and I'll send you a copy.
