Steve,
Borland HAS an open-source enabled version for linux of that
"pascal"-compiler named Kylix.
There are also OpenSource versions for windows, but I not quite sure
here.
(if open-source == test-version, then it should work)

Thanks for the info, but it doesn't seem to be quite right. I just went
to the Borland site. I downloaded Kylix 3 and they sent me a free
activation key to use it for building GPL applications. I haven't tied
it yet, but this much looks OK. Delphi is now version 7 (Bloodshed says
it requires version 6) and is not free. A personal version, for building
non-commerical applications (whatever that means) is $99 - no so
expensive, but not free.
I doubt Bloodshed will build properly with Kylix. If it were that simple
I'm sure there would be a proper Bloodshed for Linux available. All that
seems to exist for Linux is an ancient test version.
Regards,
Steve
