    Now trying to build OpenXP and see if it has a working QWK
    module...

    Ogg could tell us if OpenXP does QWK. Golded does QWK but you have to
    setup the areas in your config. I don't remember the steps anymore but it works.

    I'm not sure OpenXP does build on ARM (Raspberry). Out of the box it returns an error on non-x86 systems. I managed to work around that error, but I have to build another lib before I know if it builds successfully ...

    It'll be interesting to hear how you make out. I'm not sure if anyone using OpenXP has done that.

    I don't have a pascal compiler here so I have never tried either.

    Ttyl :-),

    Maybe not. But today the weather is too damn good. It has to wait ...

    I think the last time I compiled a Pascal program was in the 90s ;)

    FreePascal is open source and is included in every popular Linux distro.
