Hello David,
My main problem getting started with FPC has been general logistics
operating in a Windows environment. I have an icon to open FPC on my
desktop. If I have the programs I am working on in various
directories called c:\project1, c:\project2, etc., how do I configure
the Options/Directories to look for things in the right places and put
compiled code in the right places? Do I need separate icons to open
FPC for each working directory?
use Dev-Pascal IDE

Also I did a Hello program that put the output in a DOS screen, which
flashed off immediately. I got it to stay open by waiting for input
using the keypressed function in the CRT unit. Is there some other way?
Just add at the end of the program:
write('Press <Enter> to quit');
readln;
Where would I read to start learning about producing GUI output? Is
there still the distinction between text and graphics modes as in the
Turbo Pascal days? Do I need to read up on Delphi to be able to use
GUI features in FPC, or are there tutorials for FPC that would get me
there directly?
