Has anybody mentioned "Lazarus: The Complete Guide" yet?

I don't have a copy, but I think that the cross-platform aspect of Free
Pascal and Lazarus means that one has at least to be aware that some
facets of TP and Delphi don't apply.
Also both Delphi/Lazarus and the underlying Object Pascal language have
moved so much towards a component-based approach that things like linked
list manipulation are far less important than they used to be. Arguably,
if you find yourself with a pointer or an address at the application
level then you're at fault: everything like that should be in custom
objects with well-defined interfaces.
