Quarkbox is an Atom package that allows you to build and run TurboPascal programs. Bundled is the TurboPascal compiler from borlandc.org.

Requirements

• Willpower to use such an ancient language.
• DOSBox 0.74 installed in the default directory.
  • It may be necessary to change the path of your DOSBox executable in the Quarkbox settings before using the package.
  • If you use a newer version of DOSBox you will also need to update this setting.

Using Quarkbox

If there is an error during the compilation of your program, Quarkbox will halt future operations (such as running) and alert the error. The area of code that the compiler specifies will also be highlighted.
