+This is yet another ANSI/Turbo Pascal to C/C++ converter together
+with BGI graphics library emulation for X Window System.
+
+Converter recognizes Pascal dialects which are compatible with
+Turbo Pascal 4.0/5.0 and ISO Pascal standard - IEC 7185:1990(E)
+(including conformant arrays). Now it is tuned for Oregon Pascal-2
+V2.1 which has few extensions to standard Pascal.
+
+Converter can produce both C++ and C output.
+
+Now PTOC recognizes Turbo Pascal's extensions, such as units,
+strings, some special types and operations. Turbo Pascal
+extensions are supported only for C++ language.
+
+Also emulation libraries of Borland Graphics Interface (BGI) for
+X Window System included in this distribution (BGI emulators can
+be also used without converter for C programs using BGI).
