I have been playing with lazarus trying to get the mwCustomEdit .92a to
compile.
This has lots of optimizations as far as font and other resource caches
which will
probably go a long way to solving the speed, but while doing the
compile/comment
out/create new methods cycle, I came across this name conflict I cannot
resolve.

Here is a code snippet which shows the problem,
Along with the errors generated.
It would seem the compiler has some scoping issues.
Is this design or a 'feature'? :)

The code should describe the problem clearly.

       t := ' new';
       Insert(t, s, 5); // won't compile
       //error "hello.pp" 41 Wrong amount of parameters specified
  end;

begin
       s := 'A bit of text';
       t := ' new';
       SysUtils.Insert(t, s, 5); // won't compile
       //error "hello.pp 48 Identifier not found INSERT

  writeln('Hello World Again this is yet another test');

end;

end.
