[fpc-pascal] Re: declaration of functions

[Uffe Kousgaard]

Thanks to all. I just found the link on
http://www.freepascal.org/maillist.var to GMANE, so I can follow the list in
my newsreader.

But the correct syntax for the link to work is news:// , not nntp://. At
least with outlook express.

Since I'm compiling for WinCE at the moment, would anybody know if there is
something wrong with the emulator from MS?
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=A120E012-CA31-4BE9-A3BF-B9BF4F64CE72

It keeps stopping installation halfway through with message "was
interrupted". No further errors.

Compiling with freepascal actually pointed out a few details which the
delphi compiler didn't care about. Got code cleaned up a bit that way :-)

Regards
Uffe Kousgaard
