Thanks for your answers Daniel, and sorry for the non-standard quoting, I'm fighting Outlook here! Scary business!

Ok, this project concept will work. I have an issue with putting files into subdirectories those. I tried using the Synapse library for my socket programming tests, and I placed the source files in a "Lib" subdirectory. How do I get the compiler to properly see those files? I fiddled around with the settings in the IDE and managed to get the files compiling, so the compiler saw them, but once I did that I failed to see some of the standard libraries so I must have done it the wrong way. In the Delphi IDE this can happen if I change the library search path without keeping the original bits and pieces, I suppose there's some trick like this in the FP IDE also, but I've seen no default search path to leave untouched...
