* Because it would be idiotic to change something based on a point of
view of one person.
It's not just one person. Lets just take the Rectangle type/structure.
* Delphi has it's own (based on Windows TRect - how original)
left,top,right,bottom
* fpGUI has it's own: TfpgRect
tell us
* MSEgui has it's own: rectty
left,top,width,height
* AggPas has it's own: rect_ptr, rect_d, rect_i
doubles and C int type. Aggpas is a C port. C people are used to
reinvent the wheel.
* KOL probably has it's own too
no
* ... pretty sure there are more....
As far as I can see, every one of the above has a good reason to use
their own type.
