I wanted to do the same as my gf is doing pascal at uni this year,
and having a unix PC at home I wanted to save on phone bills :)

I ported "p2c" - the pascal to C translator  (the big one!)
and wrote a 'pc' shell script for her.  works just the same,
and has miles of extensions to enable compabability with all
sorts of pascal compilers.

I found it on archie - but email me if you can't find it.

Cheers
