OK, WTH am I supposed to enter into the anti-abuse field? I tried a few dozen variations of everything and nothing is accepted.
I might be too old and senile :) can we get some small explanation there?

PS: BTW, Great work guys on pas2js
Technically the anti-abuse field would produce the output of: Fatal Syntax error, ";" expected but "identifier WRITELN" found because there is no semicolon following the sample code. :D I guess maybe it's after an if statement and before an else so it doesn't need a semicolon?
Silliness aside....
Writeln ('String1'+'String2'); merges the strings together and will output: String1String2, it makes more sense if some strings are in variables, like Writeln(prefixstring+'string here'+suffixstring);
So given writeln('ab'+'CD'); you would get output of: abCDJim
I still can not enter anything there that is accepted. For example: Writeln('def'+'@abc.com');
gives an error. No matter what I enter there it just gives an error "Anti-abuse result is wrong.". Small letters, capital letters, semicolon, simple letters, all variations of the above, does not matter.

The anti-abuse line is a question to which you must answer. You must not enter a new expression, you must enter the result of the writeln statement that you see there. in my case that was abCD
The anti abuse is supposed to be a simple measure against spam bots subscribing a lot of email addresses automatically.

I still can not enter anything there that is accepted. For example:…
I think you are overcomplicating it, the answer is always: abCD for everyone... quite literally, just put in:
abCD
it will not accpt anything but abCD make sure lowercase ab and uppercase CD it's not a trick question, it's just a way of keeping bots from auto registering. If it won't accept abCD then try another browser perhaps.

Ahh, ok, I see now.
Can we change the field caption to "Security question: What would be the result of writeln(...)" then please, so even idiots like me can understand what is expected in there? :)
