Hallo Fred van Stappen,

this is a follow up on my last message from Wed, 24 Aug 2022 23:50:24.

Meanwhile, I succeeded in building a working version of the two units
"formscanner.pas" and "mo4stock.pas" that can really use stock items
like the latter's name promises.
Of course, the main change applies to "mo4stock.pas", as this has to
do the "provisioning" of the values. The "formscanner.pas" only
"suffers" in so far as it should not output "msgid" entries for stock
items any more, in my opinion at least. (Well, maybe that should be
made configurable?)
A new version of the "podemo" demo program containing & using these
new units is downloadable from my web site as usual under the file
name "podemo_mo4stock.zip". I did test them with other applications
as well, and to the best of my knowledge, they worked alright.
BTW, the "formscanner" unit also includes the addition of allowing
for the translation of grid headers. This was (again) a bit involved,
as grid column and row headers don't fit at all in the regular
inheritance scheme of "tcomponent"s, but are very special beasts and
require very special handling.

As a quite distinct further entry on my web site you can also get the
file "msegit.zip", which, on principle, is just a made-current version
of the olden "msegit" utility program from Martin (begun 1999, it
seems). There were a couple modifications neccessary to make it work
with the current compiler & libraries. Specifically, the original
version had lost any ability to save the windows' status and positions.
This works agian now, and I included an option to compile it with
localization support (of course using the above mentioned units),
albeit still quite rudimentarily implemented. This is mainly due to my
still prevailing ignorance of the function of git, and also to the
fact that I cannot think of really understandable translations of most
of the special terms used there. Perhaps some might get more clear by
playing around some with git, which I should probabely do for some
customer's projects anyway. So, this is still "work in progress",
provided mainly for the sake of making "msegit" recent.

I hope, you can still make some use of these items and get relief of
your mishap soon.
I wish you good luck.
