Actually it is a fair reason for me. My apps really *need* to fit a floppy ... most of the e-mail I get about the installer I created on Delphi for BrailleVirtual Course is about people trying to put it into a floppy. That´s the reality here in Brazil .... there are lot´s of old computers, specially in one of my main users, the public schools. I usually test on a Pentium 100Mhz with Win95. If it runs ok I´m happy If it´s multi-platform I also test on a Pentium233Mhz with Damn Small Linux > Well, all depends in the application i guess.

For anything else i use Pascal. I want both: small and also a good looking, easy to use GUI created with a RAD =) I don´t remember the last time a created a program that does not involve a GUI. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
