\def\name{\MF}

\N0\*.  \[0] About \namefpc.

This is an adaption of Donald~E. Knuth's \MF, version 2.7182815
from January 2014, to Free~Pascal (FPC)  and Unix.

The features added include treating the command line as the first
input line and invoking a system editor, in this case \.{vi}, to
let the user correct the input file.
On exit, \namefpc\ passes its `history' to the operating system.

The changes needed to make \namefpc\ compile and run to my satisfaction
are very similar to those applied to  \TeXfpc. Look in tex.tex for
a thorough description of adaptions to Unix, FPC, and my taste.

\hint

Comments and questions are welcome!

Since @x, @y, and @z only define a change block when they begin a
line, you deactivate a block by indenting it (shift right) and 
activate it by unindenting it (shift left).  With vi set the   
cursor to the @x line and enter >} or <} to (un)indent a paragraph.

A signal handler is a procedure that takes one |integer| parameter.
The procedure |fpc_fp_signal| takes two parameter, an integer and
a signal handler. The integer is the number of the signal. Whenever
the program receives a signal with the designated number, the signal handler
gets invoked.

The integer |SIGINT| is the number of the interrupt signal.  The
system sends an interrupt signal to the program, whenever the user
types \.{\^C}.

The function |fpc_fp_get_errno| returns an integer that is not zero,
whenever something went wrong.

The identifier |fpc_signal_handler| denotes the |type| of a
pointer to a signal handler. Since this is foreign to ISO~Pascal,
we use the type cast to |fpc_signal_handler| as a kludge.

@ The signal handler has the so called modifier |interrupt|.
Modifiers are an extension of FPC Pascal. This one makes the compiler
generate the code suitable for a signal handler, which must not
return to the caller but to the instruction where the program was
interrupted.
