Virtual Pascal has alot of it's units open for editting. I just has a few
that are closed, because of the original is a copyright belongs still
to Borland International.

Quote from the site.

"The following standard units are shipped with VP: VpSysLow, System, SysUtils,
Use32, Use16, Dos, Crt, Strings, Printers, Objects, Validate, WinDos, WinCrt, 
TypInfo, Math and Classes. For the SysUtils, Classes, Math and TypInfo units, 
only the interface sections are included (because the original copyright 
belongs to Borland International); the other units are all supplied with full 
source code."


JC> (VP for Windows).

Plus, you said you use it on Windows.  I also do, but I found it is mainly
gear'd towards os/2.  They only list ONE example for a IBM based machine.


Just thought to fill in a couple of gaps.
