I think it should be okay to start directly with Lazarus. Lazarus IDE makes project management much easier and has some fantastic editor features. > What books would you suggest? I don't know about books, but any Delphi book should do. Free Pascal and Lazarus is very close to Delphi. Also to a few Google searches on the topic. Again, whatever you find for Delphi should apply directly or at least very close to Lazarus. If you get stuck, you can always post your questions here or in the Lazarus mailing list. http://www.delphibasics.co.uk/ http://www.bitwisemag.com/2/Learn-To-Program-Delphi-Part-One http://www.delphifusion.com/delphi/a-guide-to-learning-delphi.html Some books: * Learning to Program in Pascal and Delphi, ISBN: 978-1904467298 * Delphi in a Nutshell: A Desktop Quick Reference, ISBN: 978-1565926592 * Tomes Of Delphi: Basic 32-Bit Communications Programming, ISBN: 978-1556227523 * Mastering Borland Delphi 2005, ISBN: 978-0782143423 Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
