J'étais jeune, au lycée, Windows 3.1 n'était pas encore paru. Je m'étais lancé dans un programme DOS de représentation des molécules en texte... #turbopascal

@nixCraft Never used that newfangled stuff - I 
started using TP3 at @KIT_Karlsruhe (then still Universität Karlsruhe) in 1987 and changed (unenthusiatically) to #FORTRAN after TP5.
Still have the complete boxes with disks and books of TP3 and TP5 here somewhere.

You can enjoy a nostalgic DOS-ish experience in your modern terminals using turbo, a tubo-pascal/turboc inpired editor based on the modern port of turbovision. Supports all the old goodies such as splits, floating windows etc ...
There is also tvterm which is a WIP but its useable.
Rediscovering Turbo Pascal
— Paolo Amoroso
｢ Sitting at a sweet spot between ease of use, features, and power, Turbo Pascal is a perfect fit for CP/M as it consumes limited resources, generates moderatly small and fast executables, and can access all the features of the system. That's why it's a good environment for quickly developing small tools or programs for the Z80-MBC2 and V20-MBC ｣
Kevin Boone: They don’t make ’em like that any more: Borland Turbo Pascal 7
｢ TP 7, also known as Turbo Pascal for Windows 1.5, was the pinnacle of the Turbo Pascal line, and its end. The name ‘Turbo’ was associated with what were regarded as hobbyist products – ‘Borland Pascal’ was a different, much more expensive, product. But Turbo Pascal was enough for some quite substantial applications, and was very affordable ｣

I "accidentally" #nostalgia-snipered myself into the #TurboPascal corner - again.
@nixCraft I have best memories of #TurboPascal - it was a great start into programming (more or less as a hobby). I got to know and appreciate it at the end of the 80s on a non-IBM-compatible Tandy 2000 PC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tandy_2000 (Turbo Pascal 3.0a ?).
Perhaps a little strange: After decades with #Perl, #Bash and #XSLT, I’ve been using it occasionally in the last year or two, for smaller experiments, but larger amounts of data (#FreePascal) …
Turbo Pascal turns 40
https://blog.marcocantu.com/blog/2023-november-turbopascal40.html
The first procedural programming language I ever learned was Pascal, taught in my high school AP Computer Science class. We used Turbo Pascal on a small number of DOS clones with amber MDA displays back around 1989.
That class inspired me to sell my Atari ST and get a Tandy 1000TL to run Turbo Pascal. I had much fun toying around with it, making tiny programs.
Later, I purchased Turbo Pascal for the Macintosh and ran it on my Amiga 2000 with A-Max Mac emulator. Worked great!
@nixCraft My colleague gifted me this box when I was in #IBM Research (pictures taken in 2015). Alas I gifted it to another Turbo Pascal fan when I left.
Love #TurboPascal -- cut my teeth on this. :-)
@psf I did a couple of early puzzles in #turbopascal in DOS last year, and it was enough to know I'll never find a reason to go near it again, even though I used it a lot through the 90s.
(Yes, I just hashtagged turbopascal, as if that has any meaning at all. Self-lolwat.)

I've published "In The Dark", my Rogue-like-little-light to Itch.io, with a browser playable DOSBox version.
Downloads are available for DOS, Windows, Linux and CP/M 80.
I would love to see it running on other people's systems.
