NAME

       fd2pascal - Free Pascal forms description to pascal program converter

SYNOPSIS

       fd2pascal [-compensate] [-altformat] [-main] [-callback] filename

DESCRIPTION

       fd2pascal  reads  a  XForms designer file ( .fd ) and creates pascal code to create the form described in
       the file. The pascal code is written to a file with the same name as the input file, but  with  extension
       .pp  if  a  file with that name already exists, then it will be renamed to a file with the extension .bak
       appended.

OPTIONS

       fd2pascal has a small number of options to control its behaviour:

       -altformat
              By default, a record type is emitted for the  form  definition,  with  a  field  for  each  widget
              (object)  on  the form. The alternate form declares a global variable for the form and each widget
              on the form.

       -compensate
              If this option is given then a call to fl_adjust_form_size is emitted after the form is created.

       -callback
              If this option is given, then a callback procedure is generated for each widget on the form.

       -main  By default, a unit is created which can be included in the uses  clause  of  a  program.  If  this
              option is specified, a program file is emitted instead.
