Background: I have an old DOS console program that I'm trying to resurrect to run on Windows XP. There isn't much about the structure of the program that I need (or want) to change. But the interfaces to hardware will have to change. It uses the old PORT array to communicate to the Serial

Okey, but I think that the first stage for make fpc is to compiling some asm or c files using binutils, right? so in cygwin I have binutils, even gcc, how I shoud to do to create first fpc from ASMs or Cs files? On 16 aug 2005, at 20:24, Jose Pascual wrote: Is there some posibility to

By the way, how would one compile Pascal code without a Pascal compiler? No magic script file will avoid the need for fpc. I asked this question on C2 wiki once.. I guess you could start by hardcoding a binary program from scratch in a text editor with your bare hands. Then you have the
