Hi, I also always use .pas, but the idea of using .pp for sources only intended to compile in FPK and .pas for more portable source code is interesting.
The only problem is there is no free Delphi for me to test with anymore, right? Since FreePascal works on nearly every platform, I don't worry too much about Delphi anymore. (and GNU Pascal ha ha ha...). Interestingly enough, I used to use "Pure Pascal", where .pp would have made sense (but I used .pas there too...)
