And so I've ventured into the dark arts...

A client wants some reporting stuff automation. The problem... The reporting tool of their ERP system is over 15 years old :wtf: The supplier has since switched to a new format and I had to get a report viewer from... Somewhere :laugh: It's not really a problem for me though, the whole report is XML which is decent enough (as decent as XML gets anyway). The real problem is within the report content... Pascal Script! :omg: Actually printing a report is going to be nice, their SDK for this version is only available in... Delphi :laugh: Someone else is doing the Delphi, luckily X| I didn't think I was old enough to ever witness Pascal, even if it's just its unholy script spawn. Pascal Script looks a lot like PL/SQL and thus burns mine eyes! I've already ordered a set of dark robes to perform my (now) nightly programming rituals. A question for the initiated, do I need a cauldron? :D

You need a cauldron full of your favourite poison, to (a) take away the bad taste, and (b) make you forget...

Come on old man! Get with the 21st century - you need an iCauldron XI Pro! Sure, it's hardware incompatible with Fire 1.0 and Water 2.3, but you'll get used to the (proprietary) iMagic iInterface! And we promise* not to slow it down when we release a new version next month! * Unless there is money in it for us
