FreePascal DOS version from the offical website

Ok guys, hello and sorry for make a died forum topic be alive again after 100 years... Ok, just joking.


So my problem maybe need a topic in question, BUT I won't make a new topic for that.
So, if this QBasic ultra stupid compiler/editor IDK what works on our phone, in dosbox, then what is that, that FreePascal version DOS gives me an error after installing.

I already tried that way, that I installed the DOS program on my computer, installed FreePascal there, copied the installed files to my phone and that gave me an other f*ck*ng error. Are there any gods in this forum or anywhere who can say me to calm down there is an answer to your question, or a way to learn a bit of programming on my phone?...

I am sorry, if I haven't given you enough information, or my english is not enough proper, or if your life is sucks, and thanks to anybody, who can give me some advice, or take question, or anything. Help me guys.

Sorry and Thanks.

ps: Tell me if I have to make a topic for this in the question zone, and don't ban me because my unknowledge of using a forum.
ps2: and because my inproper lang knowledge
ps3: and because the overuse of ps-s
ps4: thanks

do you want free pascal on x8?

Yes, sir, please ;D

I want it. I tried some pascal compiler from android market, but none of them gave me the permission to use 'USES CRT'.
I am a beginer in programming, and I learn this programming language in school, and use this software (freepascal), and I saw that there is a version for dos, I tried it on computer (in dosbox), and it worked. But my phone have given me some creepy errors.

I would definitelly appreciate if you could make it work for me.

Thanks

I digged into it :D

So in dosbox mount only a fpc directory for example, and not the GO32V2 directory.
If you mount s: root:\fpc\separate\bin\go32v2\ you will get the error you got.
If you
mount s: root:\
cd fpc\separate\bin\go32v2\
fp
then it will work

and change " to ' to make it work. And take a ; after the writeln('hw') ; <--here
