Excerpt: "GPC is a 32/64 bit compiler, does not have limits like the 64 kB or 640 kB limit known from certain operating systems – even on those systems –, runs on all operating systems supported by GNU C, including o GNU Hurd, o Linux on Intel, AMD64, Sparc, Alpha, S390, and all other supported types of hardware, o the BSD family: FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, o DOS with 32 bits, using DJGPP or EMX, o MS-Windows 9x/NT, using CygWin or mingw or MSYS, o OS/2 with EMX, o Mac OS X, o MIPS-SGI-IRIX, o Alpha-DEC-OSF, o Sparc-Sun-Solaris, o HP/UX, and more (note: the runtime system only supports ASCII based systems; that includes almost all of today's systems, but a few IBM machines still use EBCDIC; on those, the compiler might run, but the runtime support might need major changes), o can act as a native or as a cross compiler between all supported systems, produces highly optimized code for all these systems, is Free Software (Open-Source Software) according to the GNU General Public License, is compatible to other GNU languages and tools such as GNU C and the GNU debugger. The compiler supports the following language standards and quasi-standards: o ISO 7185 Pascal (see Resources), o most of ISO 10206 Extended Pascal, o Borland Pascal 7.0, o parts of Borland Delphi, Mac Pascal and Pascal-SC (PXSC)."
