Thanks. I will look at the parser next weekend. The fact still is that "fpc -h" + a parser in Lazarus requires the least amount of maintenance in the long run. The help output already listed the vast majority of all options. Most new options will be added there, too, even if some were forgotten. This is the same discussion we already had with Dmitry and Mattias. The external file needs maintenance for all FPC options for the eternal future. Still, it is bad that duplicate work for the options GUI was done, considering our limited resources. Unfortunately Dmitry proposed his system when I had already implemented the parser and GUI in Lazarus trunk and was fixing the remaining bugs. It was discussed a couple of months before that in our mailing list. Is there any way to make a hybrid solution? The linker options indeed would bring extra value to it. But, we can discuss it in Lazarus list if needed.
