Full ACK. While I am teaching Object Pascal, I start with gedit + fpc in shell. The Lazarus IDE is too much for beginners. But the use of gedit and fpc has some restriktions. No integrated debugging enviroment for example. I wish there where something like the textmode ide of fpc in gtk and/or win32.
What's the problem with starting with Lazarus directly and teaching your students how to setup a project with a single file:

-start lazarus
-choose File->New...
-select Project->Custom Program
-close the object inspector, because you don't need it
