Once again, I fully understand. Your suggestion will only work in an "ideal world" situation though. Realistically, we don't all live in a cave - we interact with some many things ever day. Nobody is 100% untainted!. What should be interesting, is to do a poll here and in the lazarus mailing list. Who owns or has access to a copy of Delphi or Kylix? Probably 90+% of the developers here. On a side note: ---------------------- Now not to raise any alarms or point fingers, but I know for a fact that the person that wrote ALL the FPC documentation still works to this day with Delphi. Oops - talk about tainted! ;-) [see what I mean] -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
