Ok... I'm definitly impressed by your answering speed ^^

Now I ask you (especially the main developers of FPC): Is there any
chance that this target might be added officially to FreePascal
Of course, just send patches.
Wonderful! Now I know what I can do on my way to university: cleaning up
my changes so I can submit them ^^ (such patches are submitted to the
bugtracker, aren't they?)
PS: I might also help to update/complete the "porting FPC"
documentation, as some parts are missing. For example: I needed to add
my target to the coff code-generator and I had to search with grep to
find the right place...
Feel free to add it. The problem with such docs is that they never can
cover all cases.
Ok. I will try to come up with a good description of the process.

In our previous episode, Sven Barth said:
- I successfully compiled a program with a stub RTL and executed it
during ReactOS' boot process ("hello world" ;) )
- currently I'm implementing the RTL features step by step (thanks to
HAS_FEATURE_XYZ this is easier then checking which methods of ntdll I
need ^^)
You know there is a native header in packages/winunits-jedi (jwanative or
so)
I know there are many jewels in the packages directory, but I didn't
know this one :D
Three questions though:
1. What shall I name the target? Currently it's named "winnt" but I
think that name is a bit confusing (think about Windows NT 3 or 4), so I
thought about "ntumode" (for NT user mode).
2. Now that I know the jwanative unit: Is it ok if I copy the needed
methods/types (jwanative covers also many kernel mode structures and
methods) into a file of my RTL (like the os dependant units of the other
targets, e. g. windows, unixbase...)?
3. I'm using an sysinit unit that only does a passthrough to my entry
procedure in system.pp. Do I even need sysinit in this case or can I
drop it and only rely on system.pp?
Greetings,
Sven
