Using the platform API doesn't require any widgetset specific code, no
need for adapations to new widgetsets.
It would require platform specific code instead. How is this better?
The implementation can become part of the RTL, where all platform
specific code is implemented.

Hi,
After recent discussions about which library to load when loading DB client
libraries, I changed the default names for Firebird, MySQL, Postgres.
araminta: >./loadlibdemo list
Available connection types:
Firebird, Default library name: libfbclient.so.2.5
MySQL 4.0, Default library name: libm
Intermediate result of first experiments on windows. May the next
person who googles for this rare problem (everybody knows how to
receive files but only few people have ever implemented an IDataObject
themselves and then posted the results) find this post in which it is
all condensed into only 20

Because when using GTK2 for the GUI I usually do all GUI related
things through GTK and not by accessing the na

In a StringGrid is it possible to fix cells but still allow them to be editable
(as in Excel)?
For example, when I set FixedCols and FixedRows to 2 then I cannot edit
cells[0,0] or cells[1,1] anymore.
When set to 0 then rows and columns that should permanently be visible move out
of view when
