Pascal to PB

[Daryl Lock]

I'm trying to convert some Pascal to PB but I'm stumped by two things (well, three - the decriptive notes are in German). Does someone know what a hash preceding a variable means in Pascal? ie "myvariable = ^thisvariable" and the colon/equals combination, "myvariable:=thisvariable"? Thanks. Practically everything else is OK (except nested TYPES and TYPES with nested subs and functions but that can be cludged)

PS: Any friendly German Pascal programmers with English and PB skills may apply

The caret mark in pascal indicates a pointer variable. The :=
is the variable value assignment symbol.
