Boaland Delphi compiler help needed

[PK]

Recently I have migrated to a new computer. In due course I noticed that my free installation CD for Borland Delphi 6.0 is missing, and the IDE itself won't run from the slave disk. Perhaps it's a sign that I should switch to C++. But before doing so, I'd like to have one last compile (Hopeless Chess 0.5 sounds like a perfect place to stop), taking into account my latest changes concerning move ordering.

Can anybody help?

The problem is that I need at least two different compiles, with different conditional switches (versions with GUI and without it are compiled from the same source code).

Hi Pawel,

I'd be happy to compile if for you - I have Delphi 2007. But do you know about Turbo Delphi? Go to www.turboexplorer.com and you can download a free version of Delphi. It's based on the Delphi 2006 release. It does not have some of the fancier components (e.g. some database drivers) but is fine for console chess programs.

Turbo Delphi wants me to pre-install too much stuff I'm not going to use. If You are stiil interested in helping me, in a couple of days I'll send You a source (I'll place it on my web page, to be more exact).
