Understanding is always a requirement. If you want "hello world" on many
platforms and building a FPC cross-compiler is to complex, then perhaps you
have the wrong tool for the job.
Chances are that no compiled language is needed ("hello world is not CPU
intensive") and you could try Java, Python, Perl, etc. Choose the right tool
for the job. :)
If you want to do it, because you 'love' pascal, then show your dedication by
learning the stuff needed. I am sure the people on the FPC list will help you,
if you have any troubles.
