You mean like the things that I write for a living that actually being used
country wide by big companies ?

Pascal is only one programming language I use, and only for hobby, not for
make a living, and that's partly because of you.
You prefer to create new features, but keep it to yourself, and hoping that
someone will catch-up.
It does not work like this, specially with Pascal.

But what do I know, I don't write software ...
