i'm a beginner Pascal programmer and I recently migrated to the Mac OS X. Today I spent many hours searching for a good Pascal IDE for this OS and found nothing. I used to write code with Geany on Windows and it worked like a charm, I also enjoyed the compiling and running capacity of Geany.
Do you know any Geany-like IDE or at least one that highlights, compiles and runs pascal code on the Mac OS X?
Thank you very much!

I like Free Pascal the most, for beginning I believe it is the best because you don't have too much fancy GUI features to distract you from programming for beginners (algorithms, procedural thinking...).
I didn't try to run this on Mac but it should work... I have used Free Pascal on Linux and Windows with satisfaction.

People use XCode with a suitable set of templates, but XCode lost pascal syntax highlighting a way back. There are other options:
But I also still like Lazarus best.

Let's try Lazarus, integrated development environment for Free Pascal.
