I am new to FPC, and can't get started. I have used Think Pascal, and I seem to have quite a hurdle here. Someone else told me that I need to start XCode first. I did that, then I chose a template (FPC Carbon Application 2.2.0). Then I didn't know how to enter code, so I opened start.pas, entered some code, tried to do "build and run," "compile," and none of these ran my simple code. what am I missing?
Xcode /is/ a quite complex environment, and there is no quick "do this and you can do everything you want with Xcode" document, only the slower "experiment and read its documentation" way.
If you want something more akin to Think Pascal, you may want to try LWP, which is available here:
