Can I be wrong though and remember some other IDE? I'm certain it was pascal. Oh well, at least now you are aware.

Only if someone adds it to the bug tracker.

Just OT: If you want to add a component at runtime and do not know which unit to add, simply add that component to the form at designtime and then delete the component again. The IDE adds the unit to the uses list and keeps it there even if the component does not exist any more..

Eljo, I wonder if you are thing of the "Show Unit, Identifier Dictionary" ?  Its great when you want to know what unit needs to be included.  However, it maintains its own database and needs to learn where things that you use are.  But I sure recommend it.

Hmm, maybe you need to install 'cody' package, then you will find it under the 'Source' menu.

Already resolved from the bug list:
34759,
35465,
35466,
35696,
35173,
35512,
35694,
35467.
It is strange that many patches wait for years and are not applied. Why make them at all?

marcov:
I tested a bit, and it seems nowadays LHelp only opens the relevant CHM instead of all CHMs in the tree.

The old trick of just entering lhelp and searching thus doesn't work anymore (since it is now localized to the opened CHM. Before this was a tree of CHMs and this used to work).

Moreover very weird, if you close lhelp, you see the other help files flashing, so they are still loaded but in hidden other windows? But this hack kills the overall index.
