Think Pascal 4.5d4

Symantec put this up for download a while ago, but their download doesn't work. Does anyone have a suitable download link in .sit format?

Safari swears that the server for

ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/products/think_pascal/updates/thinkpascal4.5d4.sit.hqx

is 'not responding'. And

http://www.startaid.com/review/2490473/Ingemar--39;s-guide-to-Think-Pascal-4-5d4.html

is no better, but without Safari's message. I could go on listing dead links, but you will get more joy (most joy, in fact) from

http://pascal-central.com/tools/think.4.5d4.bin

Then go back to the link

http://www.lysator.liu.se/~ingemar/tp45d4/think.html

to get the patches. URLs are in full so that you can see what to avoid.

I will try your download link, but I find it much easier with .sit.

It makes no difference to the download what the suffix is. If you mean that you can decode StuffIt files (.sit) files more easily, go to your StuffIt Expander preferences and make sure that '.bin' is enabled. StuffIt can expand either filetype, and many more, if it is configured to do so, which is usually by default for commonly used compression/coding methods.

I made it work! Now I can't wait to try it! Thanks a ton, equill, especially with your advice on my earlier problems!
