Re: [Lazarus] Using extensions for text file names in files of Lazarus 0.9.25 with/and fpc 2.2.2rc .
Zitat von Mehmet Erol Sanliturk [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Dear Sirs , I am using lazarus 0.9.25 with/and fpc 2.2.2rc2 and in general other newer fixes or development releases . I did not intend ( Makefile ) because it is a fixed name for Make programs and for a short message I did not mention it . At this moment , if I use , for example , ... dir \lazarus\read*. /s it is counting 39 README files . There are no REAME files in lazarus without .txt extension. There are 62 README.txt. Maybe under windows the fpc directory is installed in the lazarus directory? Assume that I ( or We ) should use Windows for some reasons . I have FreeBSD , OpenSuse , Mandriva , Fedora , CentOS , ... This is not solving the problem of Windows . I did not make a list of other text files , but my suggestion is about if you can find time and touch to such files append an extension to them to ease workings of Windows users . Please give some examples. Mattias ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

[Lazarus] Using extensions for text file names .
Dear Sirs , In \fpc\ and \lazarus\ directories , some text file names do not have an extension such as *.TXT . This situation is causing difficulty in MS Windows because when I ( or best , all of Windows users ) click on any one of these file names Windows Explorer ALWAYS asking to select a program to open the file . Would you please , consistently append an extension to text file names such as *.TXT or any other extension suitable for you to text file names to remedy this difficulty . Renaming here is not solving the problem because every new build is coming without text file name extensions . Thank you very much , Mehmet Erol Sanliturk ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

Creating a script that automatically renames them for you after an update may help. Opening them with lazarus directly instead of windows explorer may help. Using a decent OS will definitely help. :) hih ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
