As Ralf said: 2 letters. I have the idea .pp was used in the past to differentiate from other Pascal compilers, while .pas is used more commonly now. Groete, Reinier ... and, .pas is commonly found code of units (e.g.: yeahbaby.pas -> unit yeahbaby;); .pp is commonly found code that generates the executable (e.g.: ohgod.pp -> program ohgod;).
i like that! hahehehe... in my experience with lazarus projects, it is the lpr file that generates the executable but that also depends on the project settings which may specify a different name for the executable...
for instance: DOS: foo.exe OS2: foop.exe WIN: foow.exe LNX: fool.exe or just foo or fool ;) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [email protected] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
