Hence, the cycle was to inspect IDE internals, rebuild the

You can see in the stdout log, why something was compiled.
I believe the terminal (from which I launch startlazarus) is incapable
of buffering so many lines. Are you referring to that terminal log, or
to piping the output to a log file?
You can pass --debug-log=log.txt as parameter.
I have that already as an option in my Lazarus launch script, but it
requires a re-launch of the IDE. I use it for extreme cases.
Or use a better terminal. ;)
I use the Ubuntu default Gnome Terminal, and have just discovered (now)
that its history capacity is configurable! Anyway, what terminal flavour
do you recommend?
Gnome Terminal is ok. The default should be enough to see the last few
thousand lines.
Mine was set at 512 lines (I have been upgrading Ubuntu versions since
8.04 or 8.10). I'll make it unlimited.
