FWIW: wikis' suxxors major bovine gonads unless one knows what to look for... 
and wikis are really in the shite when it comes to offline docs...

the further add(, and not distract!) i've been looking at the sikie for yonks 
and have yet to come to any real understanding as to how things really work 
whether they been FPC and/or Lazarus... this wiki documentation format is one of 
the main reasons why i have not been able to contribute more that i have... why? 
because i have to know how to work a wiki before i can get any answers to my 
queries... when they match up with something that the wiki /might/ have available...

personably, i'd much rather have a real book al la "mastering turbo pascal 6.0" 
in my hands but that us very unlikely to be seen ;)
