I just downloaded it. It is extremely leightweight and has no external

can incorporate it in FPC. It will make testing a lot easier for
fpWeb.
It seems that it's licensed under Artistic License 1.0 (<http://powtils.googlecode.com/svn/dev/LICENSE%20(powtils).txt

number of other open source/free software licenses). While that does
not mean that it can't be used together with FPC, I'm not sure whether
it's a good idea to include components written from scratch in Pascal
that limit license choices for people that use them.
