Do you know any other Pascal compiler for Linux which competes seriously against FPC? Any big or medium sized project uses that compiler? Kylix is dead. GNU Pascal is almost dead. So there is not much competition left. An indirect measure: check http://www.ohloh.net/ All top Pascal developers for non-Windows projects are using FPC, actually most of the top ones are Lazarus developers. Another indirect measure: All Pascal projects which appeared in the Linux Questions Awards were built in FPC. All but 1 FPC projects there are build using Lazarus+LCL. Another indirect measure: Put "pascal compiler linux" in Google. I see only mentions of FPC and GNU Pascal (which is almost dead so can hardly count). -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
