Are there any tutorials on making Pascal wrappers for C APIs? I've searched all over the internet but couldn't find any.

Try to look for reading about h2pas

Unfortunately there is no real easy way to make Pascal wrappers from C headers. Programs like h2pas very well may do a decent job for simple things, but every so often you'll run into something a bit more complicated and you have to know enough C and Pascal to be able to do what the headers is doing in both languages.

Oh and a good knowledge of C data types compared to Pascal data types will help immensely too!
