<element name="AlignToPtr">
<short>
Aligns the specified pointer to the boundaries required for the FPC compiler.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>AlignToPtr</var> is a <var>Pointer</var> function used to adjust the 
pointer specified in <var>p</var> to the boundaries required for the FPC 
compiler. AlignToPtr is influenced by the 
<b>FPC_REQUIRES_PROPER_ALIGNMENT</b> compiler define; when it is defined, the 
Align routine is called to adjust the pointer to the size required for 
Pointer data types. When it is not defined, the pointer in <var>p</var> does 
not require alignment, and is used as the return value.

<element name="AlignToInt">
<short>
Aligns the specified pointer to the size of an Integer data type.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>AlignToInt</var> is a <var>Pointer</var> function used to adjust the 
pointer in <var>p</var> to the size needed for an <var>Integer</var> data 
type. <var>AlignToInt</var> is influenced by the 
<b>FPC_REQUIRES_PROPER_ALIGNMENT</b> compiler define; when it is defined, the 
<var>Align</var> routine is called to adjust the pointer size to the 
boundaries required for an <var>Integer</var> data type. When it is not
