Except, the application without nogui would not start when called from an SSH shell on the machine (like using PuTTY from Windows to start it). It immediately crashes with a little text messafe referencing the GUI part. But if I enable nogui and rebuild the application, then it will run both started from an SSH terminal and from a terminal in the GUI environment. So Interfaces was needed to get rid of the wsmenus linking errors and nogui to make it run in all types of terminal. Both necessary. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
