Hi,

Where in Lazarus (or maybe even FPC) do I setup the target filename 
extension for each platform.

eg:
   Without specifying anything, under Windows it's '.exe'
   Under Linux and FreeBSD it's nothing.

I'm getting annoyed not being able to easily search and delete any 
executables in my Linux programming folders. So from now onwards I would 
like all my Linux projects to actually have an extension. I'm thinking 
of following the Mac idea. Using '.app' as an extension. I don't want to 
use '.exe' because to me that denotes Windows applications and I want to 
easily distinguish between them.

I know I can change the target filename in 'Project Options', but then 
it's going to be the same for all platforms. I want it to be '.exe' for 
Windows and '.app' under Linux & FreeBSD.

I would also like it to be a default. I don't want to go to each project 
and change the Project Options. Is there something like that available? 
Even if I need to locally modify my Lazarus, I don't mind. Maybe this 
can even become a new Environment Option in Lazarus?

Regards,
   - Graeme -
