I use multiple machines too, and I have multiple Lazarus versions on a single machine. When testing "unstable" or "new" releases, use the --pcp= parameter to specify the new config directory, thus it will not override your "stable and working" lazarus setup. Plus, to test the "upgrade your configs to newer versions" feature of Lazarus, I copy my ~/.lazarus directory to something like ~/.lazarus-test, then use --pcp=/home/graeme/.lazarus-test in the test version, thus I can safely test the config upgrade feature too, and my original ~/.lazarus configs are still untouched. -- 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
