[fpc-pascal] Info about the -Mdelphi mode

[Graeme Geldenhuys]

Hi,

I was reading the latest documentation (https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/
user/userse35.html) and noticed the following:

> The Delphi mode of the compiler tries to mimic Delphi as 
> closely as possible.

and 

> Delphi compatibility is relatively complete up to Delphi 7. 
> New constructs in higher versions of Delphi (notably, the 
> versions that work with .NET) are not supported.


Delphi 7 and Delphi.NET are extremely old by 2026 standards. Is there 
currently a definitive Delphi version that FPC aims to be compatible with? 
Additionally, is there a formal roadmap or list of modern language features 
that the team is currently cloning or aiming to implement in -Mdelphi mode?

Regards,
  Graeme
