Florian, you were 100% correct, it is VERY easy! I looked at the FP IDE, 
and within 5 minutes I had my own fpGUI based "ide". :-) Actually just a 
GUI application with one edit field that takes the compiler parameters 
and then a big COMPILE button that starts the compile process in a 
separate thread.

Currently all output goes to stdout, but the compiling works perfectly. 
Next step is to place that thread in the Lazarus IDE. :)
