So what can I do to help the testing process? I already have a 90% working fpmake.pp for fpGUI, which I believe is required for 'fppkg archive' support or something. You also mentioned hosting your own repository. How do I do this and how do I tell fppkg where to look for this new repository. Looking at this file, the syntax is pretty simple, but how do I tell fppkg to look at my packages.xml file on my server? http://www.freepascal.org/repository/packages.xml Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
