Hi,

Relating to the following pages:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/New_IDE_features_since http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/New_LCL_features_since

...and probably other pages too. Like they say in English: "A picture is worth a 1000 words!"

In case others wanted to help add features (though I am enjoying myself hunting for cool features in Lazarus), I found that making animated GIF's are much easier than expected. Should I create a wiki page on how I do it, or must I simply make a posting to the mailing list.

BTW:
The tools I use under Linux are 'xvidcap' in "single frame capture" mode and Gimp image editor.

Regards,
- Graeme -

You can make a wiki entry. Mailing list postings are not persistent enough.

I have to say that Lazarus is getting sexy. Someone forgot to put the auto suggestion as you type feature in ;)

Seriously, congrats on everyone's hard work.

Warm Regards, Lee

Like hitting CTRL-Space automatically as you type. I use the one for Delphi called CNWizards which has it.

Lets say I type "tstr", then the suggestion box is displayed automatically and TStrings is highlighted already with TStringList next in the list etc. At that point, all I have to do is hit Tab or Enter and the section is writtent the editor followed by a space so I can keep typing.

The CNWizards version has useful settings such as how many characters have to be typed before auto suggestion is invoked. I like it set to three or four characters.

I personally like it because it saves time when I have type write type names like TGenericMediatorClass. Instead, I type "tge" (or more letters) and the list is automatically displayed with the item closest matching what I typed already highlighted. I just hit enter and continue typing.

I think open office (text editor) and Word have this same kind of feature.

Warm Regards, Lee

Dear Mr. Geldenhuys:

I was trying to get some information about how to paste de moving leopard in my programs and your email really was a great notice.

I hope yor write a wiki explaining "how to" and give the tools to do it for linux and for Windows, I am using the 0.9.26 for Windows.

thanks in advance,

Ing. H?ctor F. Fiandor
