Hi there,

I am think about converting a program to run on the Mac, OSX for PPC and Intel.

My main background is using delphi and the app is in Delphi using DirectX.

Now I have heard about free pascal.


My question is Free Pascal on the Mac a viable option? Or am I going to run into lots hardship with dependencies and libraries not working etc?

Does Free pascal have an IDE like Delphi does - is possible to do RAD development or is it more like turbo pascal?

I figure I could convert the DX stuff to OpenGL.

I know you will say - RTFM but I tried look at the free pascal site and I don't think it is very clear. And I figure someone may be able tell me what I wish to know in a few sentences.

For a mainly Pascal programmer what would other alternatives be for developing on the Mac? C#?
