I'd say yes. Free Pascal works very well with Mac OS X. Here are instructions to install it:
http://www.freepascal.org/fpcmac.var After installing Free Pascal, I'd recommend you to download the latest subversion Lazarus and then build the Carbon native Lazarus IDE. It's a native Mac IDE, and works very well. Instructions here: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Carbon_Interface#Getting_a_.22carbonproof.22_Lazarus There are also some snapshots available if you don't wish to build it yourself. Lazarus requires installing the fpc source, which is available in the Lazarus downloads page: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89339 Note: I recommend installing only fpcsrc (and maybe fpc if not already installed) from the website above. Lazarus 0.9.24 for Mac OS X was released before the Carbon interface improved, and it's not native. With the current development of the Carbon interface I recommend that it be used instead. Information about what is Lazarus and how it can be used can be found here: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Overview_of_Free_Pascal_and_Lazarus http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Tutorial http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Documentation Do you have a Intel or PowerPC machine? And what kind of software do you wish to develop? If you wish to build software directly using the Mac OS X APIs instead of via Lazarus, it's also possible. Carbon interfaces are available and Cocoa bindings are being developed. thanks, -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
