This is all nice and dandy, but how does it answer my question? I can see why 
you want to get this question answered, but I don't see why we would be 
interested in seeing this question here, given that this list is not about FPC 
in particular and that practically no one here deals with FPC or is very 
familiar with it. You'll have better luck asking on one of FPC's mailing lists 
or web-forums - not here.

Otherwise, your questions about FPC seem like off-topic noise here.

As far as I know games-list discusses GNOME game programming, but not in FPC 
in particular. It may also be restricted to discussing the standard gnome-
games distribution (not sure).

Maybe it is. Maybe it isn't. It's still off-topic here. There are better 
forums to discuss it, so please post it there.
