DOS ain't dead

FPC 2.4.2RC1 (Announce)

posted by Laaca , Czech republic, 11.11.2010, 00:06

Today I finally downloaded new FPC build. In first run it behaved extremely unstable. I don't know why but probably it was not related to FPC because after restart everything worked better.

The positive is that all demos finally work "from the box". There is no more needed setting for unit paths. It is good.

In GUI I found an annoying regression. If I go into "options" - "environment" - "preferences" and there change the screen resolution (f.e. 80x50) it fails with error message.
However if this videomode is specified in FP.CFG (or FP.INI, I am not sure) it starts normally.

And I think it is time to add the colorsel unit into FV to be possible to change colors in IDE (the default ones I don't like at all)
