I installed fpc for linux today (until now i use kylix2pro and delphi5), but i do seem to be able to compile delphi stile applications with it. For example i use:

var
varname: type = 1;

Could someone give me a quick boost into fpc compiling delphi style applications?

Also i get a complaint about linking ld-linux.so? I do not know why it is needed. The lib is available though.
