    ABSTRACT:: Pascal* (Pascal-star) is a new programming language which is
               upward compatible with standard Pascal and suitable for
               systems programming. Although there are several additions to
               the language, simplicity remains a major design goal. The
               major additions reflect trends evident in newer languages
               such as Euclid, Mesa, and Ada, including: modules, simple
               parametric types, structures constants and values, several
               minor extensions to the control structures of the language,
               random access files, arbitrary return types for functions,
               and an exception handling mechanism.
