If this is your first time the best thing to do is go get a snapshot of the lazarus source code off of the home page and unzip it into c:\pp\source and go from there.

This will not solve your CVS problem but we can address that once you get things running. If you wish to get a visual compiler tool that I wrote it is at http://www.codepunk.com/files/lazbuild.zip . It makes it easier to run the compiler from a windows system if you are not used to working with free pascal.

Give that a shot and let me know how it goes.

I attempting to follow the Win95 HowTo for
installation and when I run CVS I get the error below for some of the items when trying to check them out and then there is a message indicating the checkout is aborting???

CVS.EXE checkout: in directory packages:
CVS.EXE checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory

i don't use win... but try to create the directory "packages" where you run the cvs from.

should we get a GUI CVS for people that don't know much about CVS??? I know about Pharmacy for Linux/GTK, i know there is one for windows. comments ?
