That has been my experience as well.  Is there a definitive source of documentation for both Free Pascal and Lazarus?  Anyone? Please don't say the wiki.  And "read the source" is not useful when one doesn't even know where to look, given the lack of documentation on what's available and how it's laid out.  I have been forced to use my old Delphi reference manuals, and that is less than ideal.  At some point I'd even like to contribute to the documentation, but right now it's a Catch-22 that has me seriously considering giving up on these tools (and that from 40+ years of programming veteran!)...

P.S. - Read this as frustration, not criticism.  I'd just like to find the hidden resource, if there is one.
