Free Pascal is a compiler for 32-bit and 64-bit CPU architectures such
as Intel 32/64 bit, AMD 32/64 bit, SPARC, PowerPC and Intel ARM.
It is language compatible to Turbo Pascal, Delphi (till version 7),
and partly Metrowerks Pascal. It supports many operating systems. It
comes with a cross-platform Run-Time Library, many interfaces to
existing libraries, and a large set of non-visual classes in the Free
Component Library.
Last but not least, a text-mode IDE exists on various platforms, and FPC comes with 1800 pages of documentation.

Run-Time code is licensed under a modified version of the Library
General Public License, which allows to use it in a commercial
