[fpc-pascal] FPC on Android tablets: ARM, x86_64

[Mark Morgan Lloyd]

Has anybody come across https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Main_Page which 
I've seen mentioned elsewhere?


It's supposedly a Linux environment into which one can install standard 
development tools etc.

Hi,

I am wondering about the possibility to port Castle Game Engine to
modern gaming consoles.


For PlayStation and Nintendo Switch regarding the GPL/NDA stuff you 
might want to ask them directly:


Sony: https://partners.playstation.com/apex/PO_AccountAppliPTR?lang=en 
(mentioned at the end of the "Before Applying" paragraph)


Nintendo: https://developer.nintendo.com/web/development/contact 
(paragraph "Developer Questions")


In contrast Microsoft seems to be indeed very laid back regarding that...

Regards,
Sven

If they are indeed merely using UWP there, then yes, it's "merely" a new
target and we'd benefit from it aside from the Xbox as well.
