Such comments will not get you far. Lazarus is a community project. So help by contributing! > Instead of adding to the wiki, notes also could be created by fpdoc and > added to the SVN, provided that every user has write access to the > documentation folder. Nope, all you need to do is generate a patch against the documentation and submit it here or preferably in mantis where somebody with write access can submit it. The FPC documentation and LCL documentation works like that. I think the Lazarus IDE documentation should too. I hate online documentation, I need things local where it is fast to view. I can (and have) done that for the FPC compiler and it works well. BTW: If you run Linux and own a copy of Kylix or maybe have the Kylix Open Edition still lying around, you can use it's help directly from the Lazarus IDE. I enabled my Kylix 3 help (as described on the wiki). I now have context sensitive help on anything related to Object Pascal.
