I take my hat of to the Dev-C++ development team. You guys really know what your doing. I just have a few questions about your project...
I am assuming Delphi is a language. Is it common? Is it worth learning? Why can't you use C?
Finally, how close do you guys get with machine language? Does any of the work on this project require you to be able to interpret object files or do you build on top of an OS?
Thank you for entertaining a Curious George.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Note that Dev-C++ is just an IDE, it is not a compiler. The compiler that Dev is built for is GCC - which is its own major undertaking and an industry standard compiler

Delphi is basically a descendant of Object Pascal.
It is common in certain circles. You will see more want ads for Delphi than you will for C++ Builder for sure.
Delphi was used because it was the preference of its "father", Colin LaPlace.
