[Lazarus] Linux GUI Application define CONSOLE

[Daniel Simoes de Ameida]

Sorry for previous message... 

I really hate Yahoo Mail, I cant find a way to avoid top posting...

I found a way to share code between GUI and CONSOLE applications... On CONSOLE applications, I do not use Packages dependencies, instead I add all directories from required Packages on "Other Unit Files", but I also inform a "Unit Output directory", so all files are always recompiled, as CONSOLE mode, and .PPU saved on a different location...
