They are tricky. Okay Mattias and all, I have just two days ago got my Linux Ubuntu 10.04 LTS system stable with all the updates and latest Lazarus. Tested it with a blank project and it works great !!! :-))) How do I install the help for fpc. What is the trick??? I printed out Lazarus IDE Tools (16 pages) and Lazarus Tutorial (16 pages) but I cannot find it. Can I please suggest that when a user right clicks to open the context menu that a menu option 'Look up Help' be added (defaulting to local help if present, then internet help if not) >Mattias Peter -- Proudly developing Quality Cross Platform Open Source Games Since 1970 with a Commodore PET 4016 with 16 KRAM http://pews-freeware-gaems.org (<--- brand new) -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
