(And they don't exist in C) :) Don't mention the C-word around me! ;-) I have a Pascal book, but it only covers Standard Pascal, plus brief mention of some of the common extensions. Until I got the FPC, all I had was the standard stuff. I'm really enjoying having the extra flexibility - parameter passing, accessing the OS, strings, etc. (but it takes a little while to learn how to use the new toys). thanks, dp. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
