+hello.pas
+
+ This is a sample "Hello, World!" Pascal Program
+
+hello.pex
+
+ This is the compiled, linked P-Code executable that results
+ when hello.pas is compiled.
+
+hello.h
+
+ This file defines an initialized C array holds a copy of
+ hello.pex. This file as created by:
+
+ xxd -i hello.pex >hello.h
+
+mkhello.sh
+
+ This is a scripts that can be used to rebuild both hello.pex
+ and hello.h.
+
+device.c
+
+ The hello.pex file must be provided to the interpreter as a file
+ in the file system. Normally this would be done using real storage
+ medium. In this example, we will use device.c:
+
+ device.c implements a simple device driver. Reads from this device
+ will access the in-memory copy of hello.pex This device driver is
+ registered as /dev/pashello in the psuedo filesystem.
