turbo-pascal-mac-shotcuts

Description

This is a Turbo Pascal Marcro Language file that adds current DOS/Mac-like Keyboard shortcuts to Borland's Turbo Pascal 7.0 IDE.

How to install

• Go to the bin folder of your TP7 installation
• Run TEMC.EXE MAC.TEM TURBO.TP
• This will add the shortcuts to the (default) TURBO.TP settings file
• Afterwards the shortcuts will work, even though they will not be shown in the dropdown menus

Why?

Because I found old Pascal programs of mine and using the IDE was a neat but pain. So I decided to fix it.
