To do this, I used the GMP (Gnu Multiple Precision) library. Since I

in the contributions area of the FPC Web site, any of which could be a
viable alternative to GMP.
An initial GMP binding was committed to FPC on sept 7th.
I assume it would also compile with older (2.2) versions of FPC.
i'm sure that will be appreciated... however, as i wrote to david, this seems to
be a bit of overkill as my initial message left much to broad interpretation...
all i'm basically wanting to do is to create a deck of playing cards and use
them in a game... the current DOS TP6 version uses arrays for the value of each
card... i'm wanting to find or create a "library" of card "decks" consisting of
X cards... for a "standard poker game" this deck would consist of 52 cards...
for some other Vegas type game, there might be a "shoe" consisting of Y decks
shuffled together...
i already have a shuffling routine that i based on an array of items and i think
i can account for a deck of items... the part that i'm having a problem with is
converting over to using "objects of my own creation" instead of using an
existing object library...
does that make sense?
