[GRIN] At least nobody's shot me down in flames telling me that Pascal /has/ to work that way :-)

Just found somewhere that I was applying trim() to a character variable- not quite sure I meant to do that and FPC scores over Delphi in picking it up.

I presume I'm correct in assuming {$mode delphi} operates strictly on
the syntax of the current unit without affecting cross-unit operations.

Are there cases where it can't be used? Specifically, can it be put in a
Lazarus .lpr file where this is a transcript of a Delphi .dpr?

Yes.

Thanks. I think I read that as the effect /is/ strictly local and it /can/ be applied to any unit. However in general I'm using it as an aid to porting existing code, not because I don't like the way FPC does things.
