You already have FPC 2.4.0 so it is easy. Just make sure you also have Subversion installed, and then: $ svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/trunk lazarus $ cd lazarus $ make all $ ./lazarus & > But just now I have decided to put Lazarus also on my main > PC, which si Win XP-Pro SP3 so I went to the Lazarus download > and retrieved lazarus-0.9.28.2-fpc-2.2.4-win32.exe, which is > running the setup in the background just now. > Looks like Lazarus is the same version by the FPC is older... Install FPC 2.4.x + its sources from SourceForge and then get Lazarus again from SVN, either using cmd line or TortoiseSVN. > I have no idea whatever of what to do in order to "get the > SVN trunk", could you explain this or direct me to some > HowTo on the web? Here: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Getting_Lazarus http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus although the pages are not very good because they give an impression Lazarus installation is a big and difficult operation while it is not. FPC trunk version installation is little more complicated but you don't need to do that. > I have never used SubVersion, I work in two companies that > are exclusively CVS houses.... If you can use CVS, you can use anything. :-) Juha
