I have 2 FPC programs running on a Linux machine, is there an easy
way to exchange a few data between these programs

A very good alternative is dbus: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus

It´s the standard GNU project for data exchange between programs. It´s
also cross-platform.

I translated dbus headers to Pascal, and I will very soon (perhaps
today?) make a release of them.

I will also translate this tutorial to pascal:

http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus/libdbus-tutorial.html

Using dbus makes your code dependent on the C library, and this is not always desirable. For simple things, it's better
not to have any external dependencies.
