In case there are others out there like me, who love the old programming opportunities Linux offers, here are some web pages maybe worth copying into a text editor that provides 4 space tabs. (the 8 space tabs in the HTML is silly, but the tabs are worth preserving) > http://www.sytekcom.com/eng/Freepascal_XForms_Units.html > http://www.sytekcom.com/eng/Freepascal_XForms_Demos.html The first set of files adapts the XForms library to FreePascal. You will need the XForms library and FreePascal installed, and need a file "cursorfont.inc" provided in the FreePascal distro source of their ancient XForms Unit. The second file contains some demos. The usual buttons and menus are included. But the different canvas demos are interesting to me. The XForms library does include Image and OpenGL capability not shown. It seems to work great on current opensuse 12.2 and freepascal 2.6.2, and IceWM. I realize it isn't internet television with hi-fi stereo. But for a guy who grew up during tube AM radio, and learned to program with punch cards, this is pretty great stuff on a $100 used computer from ebay.
