I tried using FindFirst/FindNext to create a
list of files.
But when I typed FindFirst( I expected a parameter list to pop up but it did not.
Additionally when I pressed F1 on FindFirst there was no help I be able to get such help similar to Delphi7 also in Lazarus or not?

When I completed my code by pasting in a Delphi7 function body and then tried compiling it accepted the syntax so somehow it must have available the FindFirst definitions. So why no tooltip?

FindFirst(| Shift+Ctrl+Space

works here, be sure the unit sysutils is included in your uses (or FileUtil for FindFirstUTF8) and there are no syntax errors in code before findfirst
