You are joking, no? It has been discussed on fpc-pascal/fpc-devel several
times. An IIRC Italian community member then usually shows a syntax
description of a safe "with" statement from a maybe more than 20 year old
pascal dialect.
I don't know if that's me, but, yes, I used a variant of pascal (by
texas instruments) that allowed to declare aliases with "with", e.g
with a=somerecord, b=someotherrecord do
begin
a.x:=b.x;
end;
Just because something is 20+ years old doesn't necessarily make it bad.
That syntax looks OK to me (i.e. make a and b look like consts) but I
also find myself wondering what the type rules are, i.e.
with pod: TTabSheet= Pages.Objects[deleteAt] do
vs
with pod= TTabSheet(Pages.Objects[deleteAt]) do
