Hello.

Just out of curiosity why developers choiced the copy($subj,1,2) instead of standard for Pascal "pas" extension?

It comes from the fact that C files have .c, (some) C++ files .cc and some Pascal files .p -> .pp = Pascal Plus Plus :)

Well, if Pascal++ this should be .ppp :)

I thought it was "portable pascal" :-)

Cool! :)))

Now question for next flame, Why our Pascal isn't a Pascal++ or P++ or __pasplusplus. :-)))))

just imagine:
{$ifdef __pasplusplus}
 ....
{$endif}

The Linux users will have heart attacked

No, initially it was Pascal Plus Plus :)

to Maxim Artemev: By the way, "ObjectPascal" was renamed to "Delphi langauge", should we rename our Pascal…

Hello, List!

No. "+" is the sign of death, and Pascal will lieve forever.

to Maxim Artemev: ^^^^^^^ - Really? Hmmm... Pascal has redundant lexic, so Pascal Plus Plus is good choice…

Blaise Pascal
Born: 19 June 1623 in Clermont (now Clermont-Ferrand), Auvergne, France Died: 19 Aug 1662 in Paris, France

> No. "+" is the sign of death, and Pascal will lieve forever. ^^^^^^^ - Really?

There are signs, I thing called "genealogic signs", at least in Austria. Something like:

* (and date) born on date
+ died
*+ born but died soon (not quite sure)
+* born dead (not quite sure)

FreePascal ist still Pascal, so I think not that Pascal++ is a good choice.
We should use inc(Pascal)

rename

our Pascal implementation to "Pascal++" ? ;)
