Comment on Ask HN: Anyone else use FreePascal as their low level language?

Comments

Yes, I still use FreePascal for utilities, libraries and console apps. I write these in Lazarus on Linux, and run them on local machines or (for some console apps) on our Intel Synology NAS. It's nice knowing I can easily recompile for other operating systems if I need to.

For some tasks FreePascal is quite clunky, but the lower level the task, the quicker it is to write a solution.
