There were many wonderful things about TP, but it started much earlier than that. BLS Pascal on Nascom 2, COMPAS Pascal on CP/M, Turbo Pascal on CP/M, and finally TP on DOS. I met Anders at Herning Messen where he demoed COMPAS Pascal (running a Maze generator). From my recollection he was a few years older than me which suggests he wrote BLS Pascal as a young teenager o_O!
