/* Interesting Facts */
* [[Hisoft Pascal 4T]] has a number of commands and shares a similar interface to [[Hisoft Devpac]], and Source Files saved in this compiler also appear to share the same format as those saved in [[Hisoft Devpac]] making them a pain to read in other programs/word processors/type based commands. The advantage to having source files produced this way, allows coders to save memory as they are tokenised, thus allowing larger programs, just as [[Locomotive BASIC]] files are tokenised.
* Unlike [[Locomotive BASIC]] which uses "" (Shift+2) for passing strings, [[Hisoft Pascal 4T]] uses <nowiki>''</nowiki> (Shift+7) for passing strings, especially useful is also the support for RSX commands from the Command Line in [[Hisoft Pascal 4T]], so AMSDOS commands can be used and unlike Locomotive BASIC, a 464 doesn't need to pass strings through a variable, so a command like <code>|era,'file.bak' </code> will work.
