course you can write programs using some editor but from the earliest (Borland) pascal on, the IDE was an invaluable tool.
Isn“t is possible to run 32-bit software on your machine? I heard that some amd 64-bits machines can acctually run 32-bit software some how (has 2 processors, one 64 and one 32 or something like that). This way you could install the compiler and the IDE for 32-bits! It would also solve your question.
My questions: 1. Can programs compiled on a 64-bit system run on a 32-bit system (or is there a setting for it).
This will require a cross-built. The first thing to do is find cross-binutils suitable. I mean, as (the assembler), ld (the linker), strip and other binutils that run on a 64-bits environment but generate binaries for 32 bits. Then you have to generate a cross-compiler (recompile the compiler to do that), and integrate everything. Instead, this would be instantaneously solved if your machine can run 32-bit software. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
