I've finally got "The ORIGINAL Lazarus built application" (TM) (hehe) --
originally started in June of 2002 -- built and running in the latest
stable Lazarus.  It hasn't been compiled on a recent Lazarus in
something like three years.  It's amazing how many changes there have
been to the unit structure, LCL and FPC itself.

And, it compiled and ran just the same in GTK 2, so I'm excited to be
able to release a GTK 2 version of it!  The only interface change I had
to make was making some of the buttons slightly larger to accommodate a
pretty standard GTK 2 theme.  And I must say, the fonts are gorgeous.

I did however have one form that if I showed it modal, closed it, and
showed it modal again would crash the app.  I changed it to dynamically
create the form just prior to showing it to fix the problem.

I still have some cleanup work to do, and rewrite all the sound code so
that it will function again, so it will probably be another week or so
before I actually release an update.  But, I think I'll try balancing my
checkbook with the new version tonight just to see how it does.
