Lazarus is the class libraries for Free Pascal that emulate Delphi. Free Pascal is a GPL compiler that runs on Linux, Win32 and other platforms. Free Pascal is designed to be able to understand and compile Delphi syntax, which is OOP. Lazarus will allow you to develop Delphi like programs on all of the supported platforms. Once you write your code you just link it against the API widget set of your choice. The project is named Lazarus because it was started/raised from the death of the Megido project. Pascal was invented as a language to teach programming to beginners so it is very structured and type safe to keep them from making mistakes that can plague newcomers learning less restrictive languages like C or C++. The GUI widgets include double-gradient skins on buttons and other controls.
However, before you choose Lazarus for your project check with the “Things that will never be fixed” website too see if you can work within those limitations.
