Hi Fred, Tested my project, all errors reported are gone (one was a false error, caused by my wrong logic). So, for now, all good! Great job, man! In such a short time, you made it OpenBSD compatible! Congratulations again!
I'll report if there are more problems. I'll play with it more, as I have also some C-language projects that I have to test (raylib C library has problems as it depends of a github development version of glfw that is not yet ported to OpenBSD so I need to adapt raylib to use freeglut, but not a pascal problem, unless I start writing it in pascal instead) ... but I'm tempted to jump on NetBSD... maybe no need to rush yet as I don't have space for virtual machines, and that means to wipe OpenBSD to make room for the other... Oh well, I'm glad msegui is here now, as it deserves to be.
