Free Pascal isn't so bad coming from TP. They have a lot of nearly compatible
Units that work like TP counterparts (DOS, CRT, etc). Those units can really
help soften the transition.
I think you can find a lot of similar string functions in SysUtils (to help
replace all of those TP assembler string functions that just about everyone
was using back in the day!)
