Maybe you should list the original too? ;-)

Yes I should, but the original is not as simple for a beginner to
install.
???
Frome MSEide README.TXT:
"
1. Download and install FPC 3.0.0, you can get it from
http://www.freepascal.org/download.var
2. Download mseide_msegui_src_4_0.zip and the mseide_* archive
for your system.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mseide-msegui/files/mseide-msegui/4.0/
3. Extract them to a directory of your choice ('yourdirectory') .
4. Run 'yourdirectory/bin/mseide' on linux and freebsed or
'yourdirectory\bin\mseide.exe' on windows.
5. In 'Settings'-'Configure MSEide'-'${MSEDIR}' select 'yourdirectory/msegui'.
6. In 'Project'-'Open' select 'yourdirectory/msegui/apps/demo/demo.prj'.
7. 'Target'-'Continue'.
"
where 6. and 7. already are steps to compile and run the demo application. Is
this really too difficult for people who like to develop software? ;-)
"Is this really too difficult for people who like to develop software?"
Of course it isn't! But that is *not* where my tutorial tries to start
out. http://www.controlpascal.com/tutorial.htm
I need to think about this more and maybe put together a wiki page that
summarizes how to *introduce* various people to computers, electronics
(optional), programming, and Pascal programming. Maybe this is "ground
zero":
https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Introduction_to_Computers
But if you've already had a C++ programming course in college, or if
you've already used an Arduino or a Raspberry Pi, then of course that
changes things. Maybe you're already an embedded programmer that needs
a fast starting point ('runs on my system, so let's continue) and
motivating feedback:
http://wiki.freepascal.org/FPC_Embedded_Nutshell
There are lots of different people with lots of different needs, and I
hope we can find ways to introduce more of them to Free Pascal. Thanks
for all of your effort! :)
