How does the IDE make sure these things keep running when there's no activity? Do you use OnIdleEnd? Or do you set Done := False in the OnIdle handler? > What widgetset? It's gtk2, on some recent flavour of Ubuntu. Without the source index, it seems like I can't even double click on events in the object inspector to create handlers, since it tells me that Classes can't be found. It's happy building existing projects, though.
