Hi,
Lazarus wants to show all available switches of the currently selected fpc.
It would be nice if the compiler could output all options. Something like the -h option, but in a machine readable format.
How difficult is it to implement that?

It would have to be implemented and maintained completely manually. There is no general table or so in the compiler of all supported options nor of all options and their explanations. Or alternatively, the option parsing (and associated help text display) would have to be rewritten completely.
