All I can offer at this point is development systems but that doesn't seem to be the problem. How much platform dependent code is there? I would think if the main product works on i386 or AMD64 for example then there isn't much to do except build on the other targets? Is it a matter of not having developers for the specific platform or not having anybody to build it for a specific platform? _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
