Glad to hear it; 
We'll change the demo with the IFDEF, we should be kind to beginners :-)

Other demo apps are of course welcome. Please keep in mind they must compile
without LCL etc. if they are to be included in FPC itself.

Well, at least after an initial false start, we can now actually start improving the API.
Suggestions always welcome.

Thanks to everyone for testing !

Michael.
