	There is one which is sort of TP-like. I can't remember the name
(apologies!), but I think it has implemented a lot of the object
orientation, and stuff from TP. It also has the ability to use GTK+. If
my imagination doesn't run wild, you can get the GUI to be portable
(note the bit pointing to my imagination. It has been known to do that
before). At any rate, I seem to remeber this compiler being called fpc
(free pascal compiler).
