Sure thing.
You can grab both off of my website at http://outpostbbs.net/vp.html.
I have had to modify some programs to use LongInts instead of Integer but that's
simple. VP defines VIRTUALPASCAL so you can write cross-platform code:
{$IFDEF VIRTUALPASCAL}
blahblah
{$ELSE}
blah
{$ENDIF}
That's about the only major annoyance that gets me sometimes.

If you have any questions, netmail me or contact me here. You can also email me
at sysop@outpostbbs.net. I am no super expert but I have been using these tools
since 1998.
I also have a few tips with using Free Pascal and knocking done the executable
size without resorting to compression programs like UPX.
Later,
Sean
