Re: [Lazarus] Do we really need a PaintSwastika procedure?
I concur completely, Just because a particular graphic is included in the distribution densest oblige one to make use of it. If we all got nit picky about the meaning of various symbols we would never get anywhere, , I say let the matter rest and concentrate on continuing the good work of a fine open source project.

When an item has multiple meanings (e.g., artistic, religious or offensive political history) we should give it the benefit of the doubt and LEAVE IT IN. This is Lazarus (an international programming organization), not a totalitarian regime. As was exemplified before, should we paint a Hindu who is printing a religious symbol with the same brush as a Neo-Nazi? I say NO. Most people who are technically competent enough to install and use Lazarus have the ability to draw anything they want anyway. PLEASE, LET'S TERMINATE THIS THREAD, NOW!

Re: [Lazarus] Programming tutorials
on the subject of pascal tutorials...this site http://schoolfreeware.com/Tutorials.html An earlier version of Lazarus is used in the tutorial material but it is quite comprehensive, well paced and I Believe there is sample code available.

Last night I found a YouTube channel which seems to fit the bill perfectly. It introduces the language and concepts in an easy to understand way. There are around 30 videos of varying lengths. It features Delphi programming, but that should translate nearly 1:1 to FPC+Lazarus. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFZxawRN6quppxog_L0LjNg ps: Excuse the strong South African English accent. ;-) Regards, - Graeme - -- TPP BYPASSES JUDICIAL AND GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT - RESIST IT *PRIVACY IS A RIGHT - NOT A CONCESSION* -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
Re: [Lazarus] Yosemite 10.10.2 Lazarus 1.2.6
part of apple policy unfortunately. they are pandering to demand and putting quantity over and above quality which will ultimately alienate them from otherwise staunch supporters of the platform. just my pennies worth sorry its a tiny bit off topic.
