The usual answer is 'yes but you can do that with VB too'. I don't want people to compare VB and FP, but to see that FP is as good as C for heavy things ;o) And an eye-candy is one of the best examples :) -- Marc
Lots of people are very fond of C because you can write 'unreadable' code and do some fancy/hackerish things like printing program's source code. info links: http://www.nyx.net/~gthompso/quine.htm http://www.nyx.net/~gthompso/self_pasc.txt They do not know that this can be done in Pascal (and any other language) too. Do FPC needs a hacker style programming contest in order to show that one can write ugly code in Pascal ??? Anybody interested in fpc-hackers mailing list where people can discuss non standard ways of doing things?
