FPC New Features 2.6.0 - Lazarus wiki. And further nice changes in FreePascal, especially the new Delphi features will certainly interest one or the other, or also the further expanded ObjectPascal dialect for Cocoa programming under OSX. If now Lazarus switches from Carbon to standard Cocoa and thus also becomes fully 64-bit, it will become really interesting even for normal work with it. In any case, if you don't like Objective-C. Or if you prefer the Delphi-like environment of the XCode environment.
