Hello everybody,
probably this is not really new stuff, but... May I propose multiple
assignments, e.g.
a,b:=0;
or
a,b += c+d;
The right hand expression should be evaluated once and assigned (independently
and in no particular order) to all the entries to the left of := .

Hello everybody,
I would like to propose an enhanced replacement for the special assignment
operators += -= *= and /= :
More pascal-like would be constructs of the form "operator :=" such as
a + := 1;
a div := 3;
a or := b;
a xor := 3;
a << := 1;
Together with my prior proposal of mult

Hello!
I recently put other proposals on
http://wiki.freepascal.org/Talk:Modernised_Pascal.
However I am not sure whether this is the right place to put this. The forum
appears to be a better place.
Unfortunately I am inexperienced in FPC's wiki system. What should I do about
my postings? Shoul
Hello all!
It seems like I have hit a very hot spot with my proposal - they must be
something worth...
Let me recapitulate and once more comment on this.
My proposal is to replace the operators "op=" by one operator "op" and a
following ":=".
This can be further enhanced to work together with m

Well, yes and no. For
In my opinion class field reordering is a great idea I often wished.When I need a definitive layout, I always use PACKED.Unfortunately PACKED is not allowed on all suitable places; there should be packed set/array/record/object/class.Furthermore there should be pseudo-fields/pragmas for packed stru
