I don't think the comparison to "multiple ways to write a comment" is

OK. I will have to accept this decision :) Well I see your arguments
(Pas2js compatibility + you feel Delphi design is "horror" :) ). Even
if I do see a different decision as more optimal.
For the sake of clarity, I do

Oh, I also want to add "thank you" by the way for multi-line strings!
We have code constructing long shaders in Castle Game Engine. It right

Steve,
If you're looking for equivalent to "return X", use "Exit" with a
parameter in Pascal: "Exit(X)".
It's just a shortcut for "Result := X; Exit;"

I'm also curious :)
I just tested, and the -Co (lowercase "o") enables overflow checking
by default (like "{$Q+}" in code),

.
But -CO (uppercase "O") seems unrelated to it.

That's a funny interaction between Variants and Pascal's ambiguous
(logical or bitwise) "and" :) Both the operators and the types are
ambiguous -> making the boolean short-circuit evaluation not possible.
Indeed one workaround is to cast the variants to Booleans explicitly,
which makes it use logi
Great news! Thank you to the FPC team for all magnificent work.
I maintain Docker images with FPC (with various versions and
cross-compilers, with Castle Game Engine and some related tools), see
