First off, I don't run Windows. Also, in that case way isn't the FPC source a mandatory install for other platforms? ps: I use Linux. > and also why the IDE asks you to provide > a source directory on first start with an empty configuration (this is new > in trunk). It never told me features will then be broken! On setting up a new development system in a hurry I often don't have the sources installed 'till much later (I just copy the binaries over). My desktop at home is a case in point - my laptop packed up a few weeks back, and I still haven't installed all the source code to everything I use. Yet I have done lots of development work at home, by simply using the existing binaries. -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
