Which makes things more difficult than they already are. Different compilers have different definitions for types (e.g. in VPascal a unsigned word is actually a longint, in other compilers this might be a real word), the RTL's differ, etc. So I'd vote for good integration in one compiler. >* more that one specific target system >* more than one specific host system Ack, both were goals for Sibyl. >I would personally prefer > compiler: virtual pascal > target: OS/2, Linux, Win32 > host: OS/2 Me too, Virtual Pascal generates fast, compact executables and has very good support for OS/2 <-> Win32 cross-compiling. I haven't really looked into FreePascal, but it still uses EMX, and OS/2 plus Windows are not their no.1 priority.
