unxz on Mac OS X requires the xz formula from homebrew

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/01/30

Most sites explaining how to decompress an xz file mention you should use unxz from the xz utils toolbox.

Running unzx on Msc OS X requires the xz formula from homebrew:

$ brew install xz
==> Downloading https://homebrew.bintray.com/bottles/xz-5.2.2.mavericks.bottle.tar.gz
######################################################################## 100.0%
==> Pouring xz-5.2.2.mavericks.bottle.tar.gz
🍺  /usr/local/Cellar/xz/5.2.2: 91 files, 1.4M

Delphi 2009 syntax; not official, but a great start and complement to DelphiAST

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/01/30

A while ago, I found out that [WayBack] Toon Krijthe made a [Archive.is] Delphi 2009 syntax sample which is a great complement to the DelphiAST parser given that Borland/CodeGear/Embarcadero/Idera never published one in the 22+years that Delphi is alive.
