A "fillword" procedure does not exist.
It seems I was wrong about this. A "fillword" procedure DOES exist. I
just discovered this myself. But then the range (size of variable) you
want to fill has to be an even number of bytes. In general this may not
be guaranteed.

That worked.
However, for an integer is fillword better?
A "fillword" procedure does not exist. FillChar is an anchient Pascal
function to simply fill any arbitrary memory location of any size
(determined by a variable) with all the same byte. It is very f

No, UniqueInstance uses an IpcServer/IpcClient, so it is cross-platform.

I know it has limitations and downsides but I have to respectfully
disagree it's the worst programming idea ever. For the stuff I do which
is high level applications I don't believe it's going to affect me
badly; If i were writing codecs or an operating system then i would find
it hard to justify

The main issue is that garbage collection is the worst programming idea

Please post remarks like that to the fpc-other list instead. This list
