[fpc-pascal] Exe size

thanks for your explanation, but that's not what I needed to know

I know KOL uses api calls (used it years ago), but I prefer to create my 
forms, buttons etc. directly with api calls myself to keep the exe size as 
small as possible.
My problem is: how should I write api call's for a different target platform 
, how are they interpreted by the crosscompiler, C-style or pascal-style...?

thanks,

Paul

PS: my Mac installation keeps giving me a headache.
After removing and installing, adding all folders manually, I got it running 
and could even run a small program.
Next day, I get a OS-message that Lazarus is not a regular mac application 
and is now blocked (OS X 10.5)
