[fpc-pascal] I found FPC v0.2 source code :-)

2012-01-27 Thread Graeme Geldenhuys
Hi, I stumbled upon the following. No idea where this FTP server lives, but the link came from the Free Pascal documentation downloads page. Anyway, while browsing there, I came across FPK (what is now known as FPC) v0.2 source code release. 17 units in total and all console output is German

[fpc-pascal] Request for Win32 bootstrap compiler on ftp.freepascal.org/

Hi list, On ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/dist/2.6.0/bootstrap/ there are a lot of bootstrap compilers, but I miss a x86 Windows bootstrap compiler. Would it be possible to upload one, or can I use the 2.4.2 compiler to compile FPC 2.6.x/2.7.x sources on Windows? Thanks, Reinier
