Jonas made already TTT patches to throw out all asm iirc. But be patient, he's out of office this week :) If he doesn't read this email, email him personally.

I propose that we put the sources in the fpc contrib source tree.

Frank,

This is cool.  So, IIRC the original TTT sources have a whole lot of
ASM code (I don't recall if it was ASM blocks on, I think my use
pre-dated ASM blocks).  Computers are so fast today that I wonder if
it is needed; would we want to port the asm or just replace it with
Pascal?  (Hint, hint:  I only know Pascal :)

Last month a few people were inquiring about porting the Bob Ainsbury toolkit to FPC - I tracked him down and here is his go-ahead. Have fun!

Frank,

Sorry for the delay. I was out of the country.

Yes, please feel free to use it, but you will need to make sure
that we
do
not accept responsibility for these "derivative works", i.e. any
defects
that arise (even if they were in the original code) are your
responsibility.
Just don't want to inherit any pursuit from your customers.

Good Luck... and send me a copy!

Best Regards,

Bob "TJ" Ainsbury

Hi Bob.

   This email is to seek permission from you to port your
TechnoJock
toolkit for Turbo Pascal to the latest FPC compiler.
   We realize that not too many
people are still using Turbo-Pascal, so it would seem logical your
work
could go on in another form.
   If you like I could release the code under
a modified GPL.

Hoping to hear from you.
