In my opinion, using C with lists will be the most suitable.

Hi Aitor et al,
Thinking a little bit about C, and recalling what Reiner explained
earlier, I should think, we can create our own C library to handle
lists as in classes without actually importing more dependencies: for
that we use a struct that has function members, just like a class. Our
implementation shouldn't require class inheritance, so simple
structures should suffice.
What do you think?

Have you a preference for using c++ in netman?
The frontend is a complex piece of software using lists. Some parts
were complicated to code even in Lazarus Pascal: imagine the
complexity required to achieve the same thing in C.

This mechanism as certain tendency make C++ developers go bezerk with a
particular type of strong rage, but it's entirely usuable in practice,
although more work than having it all laid out for oneself.
In the interest of fairness: This 'more work' of course translates to
'more opportunities for getting stuff wrong' and there's the additional
problem of "get away with it"-ism, especially in closed source software:
At least some people will - either based on principle[*] or because it
saves them work or they at least believe it will - break every 'softly
imposed' rule the believe to be able to get away with breaking. Hence,
unless the language/ compiler enforces access restrictions to
supposed-to-be internal-use only members of a data structure, people
will ignore them.
[*] I've actually encountered people who refused to comply with
technical documentation on the ground that they aren't taking orders
from strangers ...
