Oh and you should also check out some version of MVVMcross
(there's at least two I've heard of so far) while you're checking out
Xamarin. You put all your business-logic into that layer, and anything

Yep, I think so. For Phonegap I would need to learn CSS and PHP
(plus get up to speed on the latest HTML), whereas learning C#, since

Hi Ryan,
Just so happens this is what I've been immersed in the last few
months. I have an idea for an app I'm working on - like you I have
Pascal experience, but unlike you I have no Apple experience, so I've
been trying to find the best way for me to code for Apple as well.
I did make

My app isn't a game, so not sure that is of much help to me, but
thanks anyway.
thanks,

Hi all,
I was on this list years ago, and then fell off at some point for
some reason, but back again now. :-)
Having written for DOS all those years ago, I am now just getting
into making smartphone apps, and it would be good to be able to use my
old friend FPC for it. :-) I have some
Hi Michael,
I remember your name from when I was here before.

That would be great. I would love to read them (I am at the soaking-up
information stage :-) ).
thanks, Donald.

Just write a script to call the program and do the re-name.
e.g. create call_bar.pas_with_rename in a directory that's in your path
with following code...
set homedir=(where-ever this stuff lives)
cd $homedir
bar.pas
mv bar.o ${1}.o
Then you can just run call_bar.pas_with_rename foo_bar
Coming out of lurk mode...
1. What OS is most-used for Free Pascal? Windows? Linux?
Well, speaking just for myself, :-) I'm still using DR-DOS (I have
Windows as well, but not by choice. Grrr - the punitive measures in the

I'm having issues with the following 2 lines of code...

Even when nothing is found I still get return code 0! :-\ I need to
know how many strings were found (or at a minimum if none
here is just another approach.
I'll have a look at that as well. Why doesn't the compiler have the
ability to read a word? All of this extra code needed because I have to
read words one character at a time! It would be the single most useful
addition. I don't understand why compilers have no

Hi all,
The previous compiler I used didn't have Exec or a way to get
parameters, so I am currently fooling around with these new toys (needless
to say, my old programs were pretty inflexible, with hard-coded filenames,
etc.).
In particular, I am trying to build and execute a DOS command
Probably another 18 files have already been opened by the OS (device
drivers etc)
I guess that's what's happenning, as when I increased the files it
worked. It seemed so extravagent that another 18 files would be open to
run a simple pascal program I didn't even think it worth checking! I
When I try to re-direct my program output it's not working. I have
tried both file and |more, yet the program continues to display on
screen as normal. Is there a known bug with this?
In another compiler, I used to have such problems when I was calling
the program from a batch file, but not
The answer to my runtime error 6 (invalid filename) ended up being I
had too many files open (apparently). I couldn't find anything invalid
about the filename (it was a standard DOS 5.3, with no LFN), but in
looking for every instance of runtime error I could find, I found the

myprogram param1 param2
made those two variables available to the program and you could do some
action, just like passing variables to a function.
How do you do that in FPC in Linux?
Don't know if it's different in Linux, but in the DOS version at least
you can use paramstr(1),
I am getting runtime error 6 with a while not eof(filename) statement
in a DOS program I am writing. I already successfully used it twice
previously in the same program (I actually copied the previous code and
altered it for the new filename and altered functionality), but when I
have used it
