Good morning Mark,

ml> FPC is very much like TP/BP but there's other editor environments
ml> that offer more capabilities and additional libraries... there's
ml> Lazarus if one wants a Delphi similar RAD environment... i use it a
ml> lot but (still) don't do any GUI coding... then there's MSEide with
ml> its MSEgui which has its own set of libraries... there's also Code
ml> Typhon which is a fork of Lazarus and supposedly does more for
ml> cross-platform stuffs but also includes a lot more libraries and

Sounds tempting.

ml> anyway, one can do almost anything that one wants to do... even
ml> porting code like the delphi based argus/radius/taurus FTN mailers
ml> to FPC/Lazarus and then working on them to remove the winwhatever
ml> centricities and make them crossplatform GUI FTN mailers...

ml> i'm aware of at least one BBS that's written in FPC and at least two
ml> others that are being ported over ;)

And the best of all? Is it free, as the name implies, and where can it
be found ?


Have a good morning,

Holger
