Oh, you may do so. But it is unnecessary and confusing in the fpc-case.
Off-course you can configure Lazarus to use fpc.sh. But what do you do
in a terminal? Wouldn't it be easier to just call 'fpc_304' and
'fpc_trunk'? Or /path/to/compiler/versiona/fpc and
/path/to/compiler/versionb/fpc?
Believe me when I say that most fpc-developers have really difficult
setups, which a lot of different versions of fpc installed. And they do
not use scripts like fpcup. They also don't type magically looking
command lines. They use just the features already build into the compiler.
Indeed. I have 13 versions installed, dating back to version 2.0.0
No tricks needed.
Michael.
