   If You decompress the archive You see that GKS is written in C.   
   That means, You may compile GKS only with a C compiler.   
      
   What You can do with pascal is to *use" GKS from Your programm.   
      
   For windows You have to use GKS.DLL and use a pascal compiler   
   like Delphi or FPC.   
   Then in Your program You load GKS.DLL at runtime and call   
   the functions residing in GKS.DLL.
