Hi,

I had a long disscution with an ex pascal developer about Pascal and mostly FPC, and the bottom line of that disscution was very interesting.
The person told me to show him a filed where FPC is better then everything else (development tools that is), that will convince him to use it, because today Pascal does not offer something that other technology can't offer as well, so he does not find any reason to choose pascal or what is the special field that FPC offers that is better then the competitors ?

Ido

So what is the special field that FPC offers that is better then the competitors ?

Productivity in combination with performance and platform independency.

Forgot scalability: you can write almost any kind of program with FPC without hazzle. Try this with C, C++, Java, Python, Perl, whatever.
