After some other tests, actually I realize that the biggest problem is due to
the $(varname) substitution schema (can't save a project as $(projname).lpr).
This was a known shortcoming when I implemented it. I renamed the files
in the explorer/commandline :-)
So it's you the responsible of this nice thing... :-)
My idea is to solve this second bunch of troubles changing this schema from
$(varname) to __varname__.
This is OK, with one proviso:
I would only do this for filenames, because __something__ is a valid
pascal identifier, which should not be changed when performing
substitutions. For source code, I would stick to $()
Sorry, but it's not possible.
When you save a project as $(projname) the IDE checks the filename in
order to change the line "program project1;" to "program $(projname);"
and since this is not a valid project name (neither a valid pascal
identifier) this is not allowed. Quite the same thing for units,
libraries and packages.
If this requirement is so mandatory, then I think that the only solution
is to write a "SaveProjectasTemplate" procedure and a "Save Project as
Template..." menu command.
