I found some old Turbo Pascal code I wrote in the late 1980s - early 1990s and managed to compile and run it under a DOS emulator a few years back. The code is a map editor for the Rockford ('Boulderdash') PC game. Unfortunately, the…

Amen to that! Here's some Turbo Pascal and asm stuff of mine I rediscovered a while back. https://github.com/linker3000/Historic-code-PC-Pascal-and-AS... I still use TP occasionally on a range of Z80 boards running CP/M:…

I had a slightly easier task when I found some of my old 3.5" PC floppies, and I recovered some old ASM and Turbo Pascal work. The best part was rediscovering the ASM code for a PC program that wrote out the current time in words - I was…

I too found some old floppies a few months back and one contained the Turbo Pascal source code for a map editor I wrote for the original Rockford game on the PC. I fired up Turbo Pascal in a DOS box on Windows 10 and got the code to…
