I searched the Lazarus IDE code and saw that it launches the custom
tool via a TProcessUTF8.  I just used the standard TProcess class and
did the following under Windows.  It worked perfectly, so I gather
that confirms there is a bug in Lazarus IDE somewhere.


procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

var

  p: TProcess;

begin

  p := TProcess.Create(self);

  p.CommandLine := 'C:\Programming\fpGUI\uidesigner\uidesigner.exe'

    + ' ' + 'c:\Programming\fpGUI\examples\gui\animation\anim_test.lpr';

  p.Execute;

end;
