Yes. If you are working in Win32 then just use fpide.

   http://come.to/fpide

This is a Win32 IDE for FPC written in Delphi.

That is why that is the first thing we are trying to build.

We are trying to build the IDE portion of Lazarus which then be the
coding part of the total RAD package. If all you want is an IDE to do
coding with FPC you have many ways to do it. You can get the console IDE
made available with FPC. It works similar to the old TP IDE. You can
also use RHIDE as you IDE.

As indicated above it has already been done using Delphi.

If you have been following things at all you will realize that mwedit is
exactly what Shane and Marc have been pouring their efforts into. It
will be the basis of our IDE.
