If a "mini-FPC" were to be created to help popularize the Pascal language and get beginners interested and up to speed, it would be more useful to provide a simple IDE than a stripped-down compiler. The console FP IDE has never worked well for me (crashes a lot) and Lazarus is very large and intimidatingly complex. I'd rather see some effort put into an easy-to-install beginner's programming environment than in pulling features out of the compiler. I know this isn't the forum for that discussion, but I did want to make the suggestion.

Nano would be:

One integer type, one string type, branch support, loop support, basic support, object orientation support, property support, array support, virtual methods support.

You'll have much trouble in *removing* existing features from FPC, affecting parser, error handling, intermediate representation, code generation and more at the same time.
