OK, that was bad news for me because I have included the unit (PasZip from Synopse) in order to make possible for my application to write zipfiles containing measurement result files. I had a Windows specific dll earlier and wanted to switch to multi-platform by using a non-operatingsystem dependent method. On Synopse's website they state that their code is portable across operating systems and specifically mention FPC. So I grabbed PasZip because it encapsulates the zipping in one pas unit and an include file. I do not see how I can dig down intp PasZip and correct it for multi-platform use given my limited knowledge of the innards of Delphi/FPC. Anyway thanks for pointing this out so I don't waste time trying to find a unit to use to solve the problem. I have to contact Synopse, even though they seem not so responsive...
In my experience, Synopse contains some very valuable code, but is very windows & GUI centric.
