Considering that FP has a much smaller user base than Lazarus (not to
speak of
features even), it's just not worth it.

;)  i guess my current method whereby i change the path to point to the
desired FPC version is the only real way... i have a little script that
i use, runfp, which sets up my environment... it requires the version of
FPC i want to use to be specified on the command line...

eg:
   runfp 2.6.2
   runfp 2.6.4
   runfp trunk

but using "trunk" messes up things that use $FPVERSION as that requires
that i have that version of FPC in a dedicated directory other than
trunk... but hey, it works for now and i only have to make sure that my
FP.CFG and similar files are correct for the version i'm currently
playing with...


I have the same, just with 2.7.1 instead of trunk ;) Though I also replace my .fpc.cfg which is a symlink to ".config/fpc/NAME.cfg" (where NAME is the one I pass to my "switch-fpc" script :) )

Regards,
Sven
