Hi All,

That pascal class was horribly written with nested functions down to
four or five levels! Imagine having to translate that without using
nested functions. I worked around by using local classes and passed
parameters with pointers.

Netman's frontend was written without using nested functions as I
learnt my lesson to never again use them.
