Hello, I’m fairly new to working with the Free Pascal IDE sources and I’d like to build *fp* by itself for learning and testing purposes.
I’m using *Linux (Debian)*, and while looking through the installed FPC source tree I found this file: /usr/share/fpcsrc/3.2.2/packages/ide/fp.pas Is this the correct main source file for the *fp text-mode IDE*, or am I looking in the wrong place? As a beginner, I’m mainly trying to understand: - where the fp text-mode IDE “starts”, - how it is normally built, and - whether there is a simple or *recommended way to build fp* on its own for experimentation and learning. If there is any beginner-friendly documentation, Makefile targets, or suggested build steps for working with fp independently, I’d really appreciate any pointers. Thank you for your time, and for making Free Pascal available to learn from. Best regards, Aruna Hewapathirane
