| al@18992 | 1 Lazarus is a Delphi compatible cross-platform IDE for Free Pascal. It includes |
| al@18992 | 2 LCL which is more or less compatible with Delphi's VCL. Free Pascal is a GPL'ed |
| al@18992 | 3 compiler that runs on Linux, Win32, OS/2, 68K and more. Free Pascal is designed |
| al@18992 | 4 to be able to understand and compile Delphi syntax, which is OOP. Lazarus is |
| al@18992 | 5 the part of the missing puzzle that will allow you to develop Delphi like |
| al@18992 | 6 programs in all of the above platforms. Unlike Java which strives to be a write |
| al@18992 | 7 once run anywhere, Lazarus and Free Pascal strives for write once compile |
| al@18992 | 8 anywhere. Since the exact same compiler is available on all of the above |
| al@18992 | 9 platforms it means you don't need to do any recoding to produce identical |
| al@18992 | 10 products for different platforms. |
