How to omit ^ in pointer using?

[patman]

Is it possible to omit pointer sign ^ when variable refer to record's item, like it works in Delphi?
I would like to achieve something like this

Code: [Select]

myPointerToRecord.someData := 'sth'instead of

Code: [Select]

myPointerToRecord^.someData := 'sth';

Generally that should work fine in Delphi mode ? {$mode delphi}

Many thanks, it works.

Additionally if you don't want all the {$MODE DELPHI} features you can override a particular compiler switch of the mode, in your case: {$MODESWITCH AUTODEREF}, as described here: http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/prog/progsu106.html#x114-1150001.3.23
