Yes, in Linux FPC should have 99%+ of the Pascal market share. Lazarus
itself also has at least 95%+ of the IDE/framework marketshare.

For Mac OS X only of all UNIXes the numbers might change if
Embarcadero starts making success here, but I am not aware of how well
they are doing. But I doubt that they will go very far considering
that they don't even have a native IDE, they support only
cross-compiling from Windows and only for FireMonkey, not for the VCL.
