to Cliff Baeseman: icq me dude! Cliff -----Original Message----- From: Shane Miller To: Date: Wednesday,…

Don't know if this will be any help to anyone, but in my travels, came across a ColorMemo component with a gutter down the left side... Have not had time to look at it myself

http://www.balticsolutions.com/files/extcm.zip

Hope this helps a bit.....
Should get some time in the next week, so I'll start playing around with trying
to wrap some components and see if I can actually help here....

They told me they wanted to host it on windows but I showed them our stuff and they know how stable linux is so they figured why not we will give it a shot.

I've had the same experience with some other software projects I did. Non-gui though. It seems like there will be a real market for a RAD on Linux so this is good news. An incentive to get something out quickly, and establish a position.

Gents I am going to put our components to the test in a real world solution.

I have been tasked to build some software to run a right angle shears. It will run on linux and what it is supposed to do is determine from a given list of parts the best fit for cutting squares out of a sheet of metal and uplaoding the job via printer port to
a machine the cnc instructions to cut it. I told them I would do it only if I can use Linux , FPC and Lazarus to do it.

They said cool give it a try...

They really liked the idea that FPC and Lazarus can compile the same code on win32 and linux.

Way cool! Let us know as you need components so we can focus on those specific ones.

I can do the drawing widget as a TCanvas if you like.
