FPK-Pascal

I've been away for a while (like, two years :( ) and have a question -
what's the current ver of FPK Pascal and is it completely Borland compatible
now?

Also, where can I find the CPU-independent Delay algorithm? Had it once,
hard disk crashed, didn't have ng access... bleah.

It is called FreePascal now. The current version is 0.99.10, I think.

More or less - and it now supports a lot of the Delphi stuff as well.
Check the "Pascal links" section of my homepage.

the current official version is 0.99.10,
see http://www.brain.uni-freiburg.de/~klaus/fpc/download.html
but more recent daily snapshots of the developer
sources are also available on
http://www.brain.uni-freiburg.de/~klaus/fpc/develop.html

Almost. It will never be 100% compatible, because it's
a 32 bit compiler with all advantages and disadvantages this has.

On my homepage click on pascal, then on runtime error 200,
there you find newdelay.
