Then you have to add the command line params manually. I guess you don't create them every time manually. Probably you are lazy like me and store them in some file or doc and use copy and paste. Then it is easy to prepend the "mkdir -p" command too. Apropos not building with laz: fpmake creates the output directory too. >[...] Mattias -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
