    Most tutorials that are for Delphi also directly works with Lazarus. I think the main difference is that Delphi makes programs to Windows only so some use directly WinAPI. Lazarus has workaround for this through LCL crossplatform units. But when it comes to normal programming with components there is propably not a single difference.

    ok, that makes a bit more sense, one thing, thats simple as sin but I can't make it work!!!

    When I use pascal, I run and then switch screen to see the program running, How do I do this in lazarus?!? I've tried building and running but I cna't find it!?!?!?

    Give this video tutorial a good viewing. I'm sure it will explain everything you need to know to get you started. Remember it's a GUI so you'll have to learn the interface.

    If you have a Kindle or an iPad with the Kindle app, you could look for the ebook Pascal Basics. It's a pretty good reference for your basic Pascal dialect, though it does use Turbo Pascal. Just as well the dialect used is compatible with Free Pascal so it'll do the job. It costs only $0.99 which shouldn't break your bank, especially if you already have an eReader/tablet.

    there is always the free kindle ebook reader for PC too that you can download from Amazon

    You can then get the $0.99 book and read it for free

    cheers,

    Yes, you're right there are free PC/Mac applications that will allow you to read Kindle books. I actually like how flexible Amazon has made the Kindle store.
