All fine and good,
But I couldn't even find out how to install it.
Nothing on the webpage. There is an INSTALL.TXT, it says change into
src, and run build.bat (for windows)
I did that 9yes fpc (2.5.1) in path.
I get some output that it compiles something, but no exe is created.
so how to I get some fpgui.exe?

The v0.7 release contains a lot of added features compared to the
previous release. Below is just a small list of things that changed
or was added. A more detailed change-log will be made available when I
create the final v0.7 release. The final release will also include
updated Class Documentation (in HTML and INF format) and application
help for DocView and UI Designer. The FPC Language Reference document
will also be made available in INF format.
Some changes in v0.7.rc2
- Fixed some compiler errors for experimental FPC 2.5.1
- Localization of Character Map dialog.
- Insert from Character Map added to TfpgEdit default popup menu.
- ModalResults is now a enum type. Improved integration with UI
Designer.
- Memo: problems with deleting selected text is now fixed.
- Improved WinCE support, including reading BMP files.
- Fixed compilation of all example projects.
- Extended available properties that can be edited via the Object
Inspector of the UI Designer.
- Fixed issues where dialogs are closed via the window border X
button and not the available buttons in the dialog. Developer
can define behaviour of X close button.
- Improved TabSheet handling in UI Designer.
- Various improvements to TfpgPageControl and TfpgTabSheet. This
includes new tab positions: Bottom, Left, Right and None.
- SelectDirectory dialog was not working under Windows.
- Setting selected directory in SelectDirectory dialog now works.
- New mouse cursor demo.
- Improved the ability to customize the HintWindow. HintWindow
demo was extended to show how this can be done.
- Improved Visible property handling especially with child
components. Now only the parent Visible property is changed.
- tiOPF: correctly disable event handlers in edit mediators.
- Added a script which generates a fpGUI version number based on
Git repository information. Later this will be converted to
a object pascal console application.
Some changes in v0.7.rc1
- FPC 2.4.0 compatible.
- Fully tested on 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. Tested on Linux,
Windows and the *BSD family.

Mobile devices.

palette and Object Inspector.

applied.

Docview includes the following features:
- document annotation
- bookmarks
- browse history
- exporting articles to plain text or IPF format.
- full text search (including weighting of results to see how
relevant the results are)
- Font and Color customization
- Concatenation of help files at run-time so a library of help
files can be viewed simultaneously.
- Easy integration via the "external tools" feature of IDE's like
Lazarus or MSEide. This allows for context sensitive help.

- Help file format used is the INF format (IBM's format used it
OS/2), which is very compact, incredibly fast and supports full
text search.

to existing components.
