I think I'm trying it just for fun. Actually I was angry because my Allegro.pas wrapper doesn't work (well, version 4.4 almost do but version 5 only does on "debug" mode), so I was wondering to write an actual port of the library instead of a wrapper. I did wrote a simple DOS game library in C a lot of years ago so I think it's a good place to start with, and also because I liked DOS a lot and Allegro dropped out it some time ago. Also I think that Pascal deserves its own "game library" instead of use those "C style" ones as SDL and Allegro. I think I'll try FreeDOS in a VM. I hope I can remember how to mount a FAT32 image on Linux... _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
