OK, I am a newbie, well an oldie that is now a newbie again. I used to use Pascal way, way back on my Comodore 64. Have not used Pascal for about 30 years. Not a developer, never have been. Just a hobbyist. I have been looking at Lazarus IDE and playing around with it a little here and a little there. I found this project a few days ago and took it for a test. I am not 100% certain on what this is exactly as compared to Lazarus. Anyway...
I downloaded the latest and started adding some components. When I add Achordocking I get a compile error of "-w". Once I start getting that I can't get it to go away. Even if I remove Anchordocking from the list of installed components, I still get it and can't install anything else. If I install components before trying this one everything is fine.
So, can I get some idea of what the purpose of this Distro of Lazarus is as compared to generic Lazarus? and can I get help with this error?
Thanks

NewPascal has few compiler changes (for example "default field" feature for smart pointers and ARC objects via using https://github.com/maciej-izak/PascalSmartPointers) but in most of cases is similar. Lazarus IDE is exactly the same. The main advantage of NewPascal is simple usage, you don't need to install anything -> "download and run with mORMot" out of box.
I was not able to reproduce you error. You can always try to use fpcupdelux to build your own Lazarus & FPC : https://github.com/newpascal/fpcupdeluxe/releases

Thank You, I will give fpcudelux a shot. Just to make sure I was clear. I have no problems installing and using Achordocking on Lazarus IDE from the Lazarus website, just what I downloaded from Newpascal. Just FYI. I am looking forward to seeing how this progresses.
Thanks
