As acknowledged earlier in the thread, my "create" was a poor choice
of word. I didn't mean that Pascal was the first language to do it,
just that it's a language that did that and is likely to be reasonably
knowable. I'd rather pick examples people have a chance of recognizing
than ones they won't, if the former are available :)
