          If you  are a serious  Pascal Programmer then  then youre
          bound one day to say to your self " I'm  in  the need for
          some speed ! ". The best way to do this is by programming
          in Assembler.  Even  C programmers find they  need to use
          assembler code to enhance its performance. I have written
          several routines that  will help speed  up execution time
          remarkably.



               FastBit.Asm    Mathematical Bit Manipulation
               FastFile.Asm   File Manipulation Routines
               FastGrp.Asm    Graphics and Crt Routines
               FastKbd.Asm    Keyboard Handling Routines
               FastScr.Asm    Screen Handling Routines
               FastStr.Asm    String Manipulation Routines


       The first edition of the xxx88_xx.Asm Routines  were written in
       November 1988 but needed improvements in several areas and some
       routines were  replaced by  the Run  time library  of  the  new
       version of Turbo Pascal.



          I am using Turbo Assembler and Turbo Pascal, both Borland
          products as I  believe  there is nothing  better  on  the
          market !.

          All of these were tested with is Borlands Turbo Pascal 5.5
          but i cannot give a warranty of any kind, either expressed
          or implied. I only guarantee that this toolkit will occupy
          diskspace.

          or  consequental  damages  arising  out   of  the  use  or
          inability to use the program.

          The latest version of  TpFast can  also be  downloaded from
          my BBS.
