Re: [Fink-beginners] Newcomer to fink

[Franz <p....@gm...>]

freepascal I have installed. In Xcode there I can use fpc-compiler  
with templates. How use I it with fink?

I installed 'fpc' packege but in version is a difference. I have  
version 2.2.4 but installed will be version 2.0.4-1. Is fink's fpc an  
older version?
What have I to do next to create and build source codes?
In folder /sw/fpc I find IDE(?) and a folder called unit. There are  
units not seen in terminal if I call fpc-doc.

Regards
Franz
