Hi all,
http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.htmlCombining FreePascal and Delphi/Object Pascal, we could bring Pascal to the 9th place in the classment, in front of Javascript!
I think could definitely change Pascal language visibility and acceptance, including in business field.
I complained about the separation, and here is a part of the answer received from the maintainer:
The language should have an own entry on Wikipedia and Wikipedia should clearly state that it concerns a programming language. This is the reason why (Ruby on) Rails, Excel, Android, Boost, Cocoa, ASP and AJAX are not considered programming languages for the index.
FreePascal has an own Wikipedia entry so it should be treated separately, but... the Wikipedia refers to it as a compiler and not as a programming language. So we don't track it at all.
I find it unbelieavable that FreePascal would not be count on TIOBE.
Could somebody make something about that!!?
We should also better cross reference wikipedia articles (Object Pascal, FreePascal).
