What features have 4.4.3 that 4.0.17 not have ?

Well, in fact I don't know because I found no history information
about the versions. But I was just comparing the versions. Probably
everything I will need is there.

4.0.17 for Lazarus is still far away from original 4.0.17 remember Lazarus
is cross platform so its not soo easy
to use ole drag&drop and masses of winapi functions :) ...

Yep. I now understand that it was not a so easy port. And what about
the assembler code... it is certainly not portable to other versions.
I know the last version have a lot of alpha blending stuff and
selection-windows-xp style (alpha blended) and that the code for this
is assembler. Maybe this was not in the 4.0.x version. Anyway this is
not an important item for me right now. I simply need linux/win on x86
platform.

as i remember VT makes no big steps from 4.0.X to 4.4.X so why someody
schould spend weeks of work to port it ?

I will not :) my project does not allows this, but if it was a matter
of 2-3 hours I would have done it; which I will not :)

maybe we can add the functionality that 4.0.17 lacks and 4.4.3 has but i
dont think an second port makes sense.

I would need to compare both components. I will not that the time to do this.

Thank you very much for answering and also for the port of vtv 4.0.17
by the way!

Best regards.
