Wow, as it turns out, that matrix is correct. My big mistake was seeing the penguin icon for New Project, Other, Console app and believing I could run such an app on Linux. But when I tried to add that target under Project Manager, I could not do it. Furthermore, I uninstalled RAD Studio and when starting the online installer, I could not select Linux. So I guess I'm going to start learning Eclipse or Lazarus/FreePascal or something else. Thanks, Uwe.

Remy, sorry, I did not make it clear, yes I know those are one in the same offering. Uwe, Professional can target Linux but only as a console app. I'm attempting to find a way to develop GUI apps for Linux hence the post. I am aware that FMXLinux is bundled with Enterprise and Architect along with the little problem of the feature being temporally missing from RAD Studio. What I did not offer initially was my hope for a "back door" solution. And a much cheaper one than buying the next tier offering from Embarcadero, to whit, buying the product offering directly from the company. Yes, it does have a fee. I'm willing to pay for it especially if it is a life time license, and, it is much, much less expensive than what EMBT is demanding. My understanding is that EMBT has acquired the rights to bundle and distribute FMX Linux as a part of the 2 editions already mentioned but at the same time, the original company is still able to sell the product. Acquiring FMX Linux directly from the original source seems to be perfectly legitimate solution to my goal. But if not, as has also been posted, there are other non EMBT solutions to writing GUI apps in a variant of Pascal. If any one from EMBT reads this, offering FMX Linux as a part of Pro (but not community) would be really appreciated. But if that is not possible (or desirable), why not come up with an enhancement to the Pro license where some additional features like FMX Linux would be available for an additional but reasonable fee -- call it Pro basic license fee plus.

Random thought: could Cloudflare be mucking things up for this one instance of the app?

Background: I have a number of systems running Windows 10 on platforms which do not meet MSFT's requirements for Windows 11. Not a problem since I can switch to running some instance of Linux. I am exploring solutions to create GUI apps for the Linux. I am aware of Fire Monkey for Linux, however, as an individual the Enterprise and Architect are not affordable or justifiable. The Professional edition of RAD Studio does not include that feature. One part of my research has discovered FMX Linux (https://www.fmxlinux.com/index.html) but emails have gone unanswered. Does any have any recent dealings with FMX Linux? Is is still a going entity after the passing of the founder? .

Let's assume you are asking about Windows and a GUI app. One place to start looking is the form OnCreate method, see: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/Alexandria/en/Vcl.Forms.TForm.OnCreate

OK, that's a good start. I'd like to also be able to capture the GetIt specifics from inside the IDE. Specifically, when using the Filter Installed.

I've had nothing but problems. It started with not being able to use the Windows Control Panel to uninstall RAD Studio 12.2. It would hang after it was doing something with GetIt. I ended up using the original installation media (DL DVD) to attempt to reinstall RS and when it discovered an existing installation was there, responding yes to remove it -- that did the trick. Installing 12.3 using Web Install failed. Using an ISO was successful and the product was functional. But when I used the Migration Tool to import the settings from 12.2, when starting the IDE, it would complain about a missing DLL for things Parnassus then die. Rinse and repeat the Control Panel unable to remove 12.3 and then using the DVD to redo an installation and have it perform the uninstall. Right now, I have a usable 12.3 but no add ons, nothing has been done using GetIt. .

Is there a way to get the details of what GetIt shows but as text? Say, like an HTML file or perhaps XML?

Lars, thanks so much for the post and pointing out that CLI command -- fixed my issue!

Thank you for posting the note here and the BLOG entry. It just might be a tool that can help me solve a little problem.

Try again -- I just got onto the site and could select the patch to D/L.

https://blog.unit221b.com/dont-read-this-blog/0xdead-zeppelin TL;DR CATCHUP ON ZEPPELIN Zeppelin is a Russian ransomware written in Delphi that is a successor to the Buran family of Ransomware (considered an evolutionary successor to VegaLocker, and others that predate it).

Just a guess: try changing the Code Insight Manager setting to Delphi (Classic Code Insight) to see if that makes any difference. Tools -> Options -> UI -> Editor -> Language -> Code Insight (tab) then Code Insight Manager drop down to select Delphi (Classic Code Insight). I make this suggestion after finding earlier today on my 10.4.2 installation that changing from LSP to Classic fixed a problem. Using LSP no Doc comments (XML style documentation) were being displayed, just a brief glyph message 'calculating' but as soon as I changed it, that problem went away and the expected formatted display of those XML style comments was seen.

First of all, thanks for the suggestion. The results showed nothing is recorded when I attempt to record my series of keystrokes to fold doc comments. But when I used a different series of keystrokes (SHIFT+CTRL+K+A) that was recorded and GExperts showed: that expand all blocks of code does work as expected when the playback function is used. So I conclude there is some reason why a keyboard macro is not recorded.
