Oh, some activity here after nearly a month of silence? I'm impressed...
OK, back to business: I am more than able to get it to compile myself -eventually-, and I'm used to seeing fugly Delphi code (it IS hard to keep that shit clean, I admit it, as much as I like the language). I just want to avoid unnecessary work by rewriting stuff like the custom string manipulation (!) and even number parsing (wtf?!) routines that Csabo seemed to have used.
Yeah, I know that he also used some components like a rich text editor (which is near impossible to find in the form of a free Delphi library), but I wonder how none mentioned these much more basic missing string and number manipulation routines. They are all over the code, and commenting ALL of them out would be a greater pain than rewriting them.
If someone knows what well known (?) library they belong to or has access to Csabo's custom stuff, it'd be appreciated.
In any case, here's my estimate of the situation in an older thread. My greatest gripe are those missing string/parsing routines, all the rest can be worked out/commented out.
@RTC_Marine: how did you deal with that particular aspect? Do you have a recreation of those routines?
