For example: - If UseFont = nil then - DebugLn('WARNING: [TGtkWidgetSet.TextOut] Missing Font') - else begin + assert(UseFont<>nil,'WARNING: [TGtkWidgetSet.TextOut] Missing Font'); If UseFont is nil, then it almost always means, the calling code did something wrong. The gtk intf should not continue, because otherwise the gtk will give a warning, and this will be far less helpful, than the above. It should not be replaced by an assert, because the warning should be written even in non debugging code. It can only be replaced with an raise exception, but that would be incomaptible to the other widgetsets. Ok, I can revert it. But I want to: 1.  remove any write to console in release version of my program 2. When I test my Delphi application, I noticed that  function with any strings operators  work longer, even if then not reach that line (Delphi make longer "preamble" to that functions) , enough to move that code to subfunction - in FPC is the same (if somebody understand me) Darek PS. What with my last patch about tComboBox
