==Features== The compiler is compatible with [[Turbo Pascal]], [[Borland]] [[Delphi (software)|Delphi]], and [[Free Pascal]], although language- and RTL-compatibility is limited for features introduced after Delphi v2 and FPC 1.0.x. VP was mainly used for these purposes: * Easily port existing 16-bit [[Turbo Pascal]] programs to 32 bits * Port existing [[16-bit computing|16-bit]] [[Object Windows Library]] (OWL) programs to 32-bit Windows (in theory) * Write console (text-mode) programs for several platforms * Pascal development using the 32-bit [[Windows API]] (the classic development, no COM) * Learn [[object-oriented programming]] Significant features of Virtual Pascal include: * Text-mode IDE * Debugger is integrated directly into the IDE and is reminiscent of [[Turbo Debugger]] * Fast compiling * Tool-chain written mostly in [[x86 assembly language]]
