I have recently started trying to create documentation for Lazarus,
after a prolonged break.
Running a variant of Debian Linux (Mepis 6.5) I have checked out the
latest SVN for lazarus and fpc, compiled lazde and started trying to
edit. If I run the just-compiled version of lazde and try to open a
I am trying to use LazDE (documentation editor) to construct an HTML
file based on a recently edited XML documentation file.
All tools including LazDE and Lazarus built from latest SVN.

I (consistently) get the following

Hi Wanderlan -
I have started at the 'ancestor' level of the LCL, and have produced
documentation for several of the Classes in Controls, mainly TControl,
TWinControl, TCustomControl; then I did some work on Dialogs, Forms

As far as I know, all the on-line help files for RTL and FCL were

information into the .XML files associated with each Unit, to enable
generation of .HTML files using FPDoc. Quite a few elem

I have looked at LazDoc in the IDE. It is very nice in principle, and
allows us to copy inherited properties, for example. However, I cannot

which Mattias Gaertner has been working very hard.
Although it is still incomplete, and has been the subject of several bug

I quote something I wrote on the Lazarus-CCR Wiki:
Installing Lazarus under Windows
The current releases of the Windows Lazarus binary packages install very
easily, and should work 'out-of-the-box'.
It is even possible to install the whole Lazarus/FPC package on a portable USB
