Thanks! I've installed both Lazarus and FPC. Now in my source folder, I have the following files:<br />
<br />
fpc-res.or<br />
manifest.rc<br />
Options.ico<br />
Options.lpi<br />
Options.lpr<br />
Options.lrs<br />
Options.manifest<br />
Options.or<br />
Options.rc<br />
Options.res<br />
Print.ico<br />
Unit1.lfm<br />
Unit1.lrs<br />
Unit1.pas<br />
Unit1.ppu<br />
<br />
How can I even get started to compile and then generate an .exe file?<br />
<br />
Thanks a lot!<br />

I figured out the way by just loading the Ooptions.lpr file and click on run. That's all it takes. Thanks a lot for the help!<br />

I got an open source code written in Pascal but I need to compile them into an exe file: options.exe.<br />
<br />
According to the help, the source codes are written in Pascal using FPC and Lazarus. But I don't know what it means and how to compile them. <br />
<br />
Here is the link to the source code in zip file. I uploaded to google doc.<br />

Compile Pascal using FPC and Lazarus

Development in most programming languages is frequently done with an editor or integrated development environment (IDE). An IDE is a software application that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. XCode, Visual Studio, Adobe Dreamweaver and Eclipse are some of the more popular development tools, but an editor or IDE can be anything from simple text editors to sophisticated programs.

Pascal is an influential imperative and procedural programming language, largely (but not exclusively) intended to teach students structured programming and data structuring. Pasca was implemented on a wide range of architectures, from early PCs to mainframes. Pascal derivatives include OOP-based Object Pascal (used in Delphi and Lazarus/Free Pascal). Pascal is a purely procedural language and includes control statements with reserved words, but has many data structuring facilities and other abstractions like type definitions, records, pointers, enumerations, and sets.
