That's not a good idea, because it doesn't support ATmel processors nor gcc C++ classes. Free Pascal also is aimed at Delphi (GPU) compatibility, not at microcontrollers with interrupts, Harvard architecture and other stuff. It also doesn't support gcc libraries. Some years ago I tried to complete an 68000 back-end for Free Pascal, and gave up after some tries. Modifying the front-end is much more complicated :-( DoDi
