   Have a look at Free Pascal. It uses BP7 syntax and can build for Windows,   
   OS/2, Linux, FreeBSD & MacOS.   
      
   There is a CRT unit that can be used for text mode CUI apps, to display an   
   output similar to BinkleyTerm's, though another option would be to just to   
   output ANSI codes directly and let the Windows/OS2/*NIX terminal interpret   
   them.   
      
   For cross-platform GUI apps there's the Free Pascal GUI toolkit, fpGUI. Or you   
   can use Lazarus, which is basically an open source version of Borland Delphi.
