FreePascal Links

FreePascal Compiler - www.freepascal.org
	FreePascal (or FPC) is a 32-bit, multi-platform totally free pascal language compiler. On the website you can download the compiler, units contributed by other users, and other cool stuff. It also has special compatibility modes for Borland Pascal & Delphi, so you can use code designed for those compilers with small or even no changes.

Tom @ Work - members.yline.com/~tom_at_work/

The homepage of Thomas Schatzl, one of the very-important guys doing work on FreePascal, who has also authored many of the most valuable units available. The original CPU detection unit, the DirectX units for FPC, and also FreeType (truetype font support) are all available to us thanks to Tom's work. Check it out!

Miscellaneous Links

Sandpile.org - www.sandpile.org

The ultimate resource for technical info, instruction lists, capabilities, voltages, and everything else you need (need?) to know about IA32. If you don't know what IA32 is, the site will also put you to sleep in record time. As an example, this is their slogan: The world's leading source for pure technical x86 processor information. Enjoy!

The Angband Comic - www.angband.net/

You have to know and love the Roguelike text-based game Angband to enjoy this, but if so (and many programmers love Angband!) this is a very accurate (if sarcastic) take on the unique humour to be found in the game.
