Some might suggest "Titanic" too. :-)


With my original post I wasn't actually asking for new suggestions, but
simply if FPC considers the language it uses as a "new" language named
for example "Free Pascal", or does it still consider it as standard
"Object Pascal".

But with everybody's replies, I guess it is a difficult question to
answer, because FPC has many hats (various compiler modes), which
affects the language syntax. Even so, I would like to think compiler
mode ObjFPC is FPC's native/default language - the others are just nice
gestures for compatibility sake.
