I read the other day on OSNews about a company that developed a Object
Pascal compiler, that compiles to Java Bytecode.  Maybe that will be
of interest to you. Search OSNews if you want to read the article.

thanks, will check it out, hadn't heard of it (hope they don't mean Apple's older Object Pascal, but the Borland-style one)

As for .NET, why not just call the Chrome command line compiler from
Lazarus. You can setup Lazarus by telling it where the compiler is.
You will need to submit a few patches to lazarus though, to get other
things to work, like debugger, etc. Not sure if this will work.

this is an option indeed, will check it out when possible to see if it's easy to do and how to abstract that wrapping using some interface and various concrete wrapper implementations (say for chrome and borland compilers)

for GUIs, I'm a fan of transcoding a GUI design to other formats (either descriptive [resource-style, like Delphi and VB6] or imperative ones [using autogenerated command blocks as is the fashion that JBuilder promoted and VS.net IDE now uses too, VB.net included])

e.g. see my VB6FormDesignToXML and VB6FormToWebForm stuff at http://tranXform.onestop.net

cheers,
George
