yes, But how long get time? 1 second 5-10 second? need test. if conflict 
any settings,  hard to find it. I'm talk about to lazarus user(s) 
ofcource this conflict problem on usually on svn

For cross compile.  for exmple I'm on osx and make win and linux build. 
For some design and/or some test etc. I'm using virtualbox os and 
installed same fpc & lazarus (svn)
Keyboard maps. Editors colors, etc. Export/Import maybe helpful, but at 
this point need select which settings will export or import. On import 
need version check etc.
