[lazarus] Setup

[Cliff Baeseman]

Ok here goes.

If you do not mind or wish to work on it we need a good way to do the
configuration startup and etc on the IDE that I sent you.  In the ideinit is
the stuff I wrote so far to save application settings for the IDE.  We need
to be able to save the stuff unit search paths, library paths  and we also
need to come up with a initial project file. The project file will contain
the stuff such as the compiler settings etc.  If you can assume this stuff I
will work on the XML parser so that we can use glade output to build pascal
source. The unit scan.pp is a lexical tokenizer. I use it to color the source
and plan on using it for the XML parser.  As for who works on what it is
pretty loose. A bunch of the guys are working on a class structure that wraps
GTK. I plan on using that library to build the source from the Glade XML.
You will also have to build a compiler setting window to configure the paths
etc.  If you do not wish to work on that just let me know and we can find
other things for you....
