I tried it with Win XP Pro SP2 (and FPC 2.0.2). When compiling the

You must live with it. In low level system programming I need to access
protected procedures of classes in other units this way.
The hints of unused variables are not every time right.
I don't like the cracker classes too, but there are some things private in
FPC which should be protected.

Why do you use only lowercased letters? Don't you find that
"thandlestreamcracker" is much less legible than "THandleStreamCracker".


I have changed my pascal coding style 4 times in the last 25 years but no
more since 10 years ago. It seems that for me the optimum is reached.

Why all lowercase:

- It is faster to type.
- It is (for me) easier to read.
- I do not read word by word but a group of statements as a whole.
This is only possible (for me) if all is lowercase.
