pascal p5c
fast, portable Pascal compiler using gnu c as intermediate code
p5c is a fast portable iso standard pascal compiler.
It is derived from the pascal p5 compiler and creates gnu c code instead of p-code.
This makes it very fast since it uses gcc to generate native code.
p5c is multi platform - it is easy to get up and running since you only need gcc to start.
Using gcc enables extra tools like a static analyser and code coverage analyser.
Execution profiling described in the blog here -> https://sourceforge.net/p/pascal-p5c/blog/2017/07/how-to-use-profiling-to-speed-up-p5c-pascal-programs
It extends p5 by adding arbitrary set limits and conformant arrays.
The project also contains p5x - pascal with extensions to the standard pascal language (underscores allowed in identifiers, otherwise in case statement, constant expressions, etc)
