Vincent writes "The Lazarus team is glad to announce the 0.9.24 release. This release
is based on fpc 2.2.0.

This release can be downloaded from the
sourceforge download page (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89339).


Highlights / Major changes:
- The win32 widgetset interface can be used
on win64 too and has been relabeled win32/win64
- First stable releases of the
Windows CE and i386-darwin (IntelMac) versions
- Huge improvements to QT, Carbon and Gtk2 widgetset interfaces
- Due to a name conflict under Linux with the tct package the link
'/usr/bin/lazarus' was renamed to '/usr/bin/lazarus-ide'. This means
the IDE can no longer be started by typing 'lazarus' in a terminal but
with 'startlazarus' or 'lazarus-ide'.


The detailed list of changes can be found here (http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_0.9.24_release_notes)."

Downloaded and going to try it out tonight. I'll be interested to see how it goes. :)

Btw, whats up with the 2 much smaller Win32 versions that denote cross wince, arm, etc? Are they earlier test packages?

I got the third of those packages Will, it seems to be the right one for me.

FINALLY a version of Lazarus that doesn't have trouble with WindowBlinds! And the whole interface seems much improved too, so I'm starting to like Lazarus for a change.

These packages should be pre-built crosscompiler: if you need a win32->arm-wince crosscompiler, then you will need to install the base Lazarus package (Lazarus-0.9.24-fpc-2.2.0-20071114-win32.exe), then install the cross-arm package (Lazarus-0.9.24-fpc-2.2.0-20071105-cross-arm-wince-win32.exe)
