Hello. I would like to modify the program GPX_Editor.exe so it can run on my Windows XP system. The program is needed, but as it is now the program exclusively calls IEv9+. Since IEv9+ does not run on Windows XP, then neither does GPX_Editor.exe run there. So my goal is to modify the source code so the program can call the FFv51+ browser instead. This is the only program change desired. Since the code is GNU open source, I am thinking it is okay to do the modify and recompile. Do you feel the same way?
I am not asking the forum write the modified program for me, but I certainly need whatever help and advice can be provided. Thank you.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/gpxeditor/files/Some of the relevant code is at lines 515 to 519 in Main.pas. Although undoubtedly the desired change is more complicated than those few lines.
The original program appears to have been written in Borland Delphi/Kylix. I am using FPC v3.0 and Lazarus IDE.
