With the help of a cross platform serial port library (like
synaser) the program can be completely cross platform.
Freepascal and Lazarus seem very interesting. Being cross platform is always a plus of course, however linking to "plugin DLLs" would probably be hard...
However, if we could make the heart of the emulator compile under freepascal, it would be great.
However, I don't see the point in Synapse. It's a network library, not a serial one, if I'm not mistaken... **EDIT** Now I see what you mean :
http://synapse.ararat.cz/files/synaser.zip is lower on the page you mention**
Well, there's also the C way either with Cygwin's gcc or with MS command-line toolkit, but that's nowhere as easy as Delphi or Visual C...
