Note that due to a problem with Delphi 5 the CPU package has been
reuploaded.... due to a small problem with the 'overload' identifier.
And btw, these are the platforms I have already tested current package
successfully:
FPC 1.1: Linux / Win32 / GO32V2
VP 2.1b: Win32 / DPMI32 / OS/2 (compilation only)
Delphi 2
Delphi 5 [reported]
Untested:
FPC 1.1: OS/2
VP 2.1b: OS/2
I am looking forward that they work nevertheless - no code has been changed
since the last release ;) I'd be glad if somebody could run + test there
....
Thank you in advance,
Thomas
