I just stumbled upon Lazarus, pretty impressed

I just stumbled upon Lazarus Free Pascal, I'm impressed with how their packages are installed and the IDE rebuilt. I haven't figured out their web implementation yet, but it's interesting. Does anyone have experience with Lazarus? I definitely prefer LC instead of pascal, but I think they've done quite a bit right too.

Yeah, if I had to write Pascal code I'd do it in Lazarus.

There is a great connection from LC to Pascal/Lazarus via externals. Do you already know this SDK?

RunRevPlanet Pascal SDK by Scott McDonald ( runrevplanet.com/resources.html ).

I would call it a must-have, it's high quality work.

I was programming in Object Pascal using Borland Delphi for 12 years. When they sold out to Embarcadero I switched to Lazarus for most of the utilities I was working with.
Great software to use.
