Ooops, 0.9.24 is not working as GG> I do that often under Linux and have always handled that by specifying GG> a new config location as a parameter when I start up Lazarus.

The command GG> line doesn't bite. ;-) That's not the problem, I'm very confortable with command line, in fact I'm using 4NT much more than file explorer. But in pre 0.9.26 versions the config is tied to each installation, since 0.9.26 Lazarus starts to use the user config path, the same for each installation, so suddenly new installations share the same config. Also a simple "Lazarus --help" does not "help" too much ;) and navigating around wiki looking for "config folder" does not help also. It could be solved using a simple question, I think.

Had you tried to find that information in the wiki using a problem description ? Even using primary-config-path as keyword, one of the good matches appears at position 15. It's not a problem for me anymore ;) -- Best regards, JoshyFun _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
