I have released today v0.0.1 b2 of my first ever Lazarus plugins – Split Lazarus.
This plugins allow users to split view source code using the Lazarus IDE.

The following release is just to provide a look and feel, and request for help with testers etc… and by no mean should be used otherwise.
I must say that it was not so simple to arrive to this version due to few factors:
- First time of writing such thing
- For debugging my own code, I need to debug the IDE, because I'm executed from within
- Found a bug with FPC class
- There are things that I thought that works in one way, but actually in much different way
- So I needed to rewrite code in that level as well …
The following release contains only few features, such as syntax color, and fonts that are copied from the original editor.
It also provide a splitter between the original editor and the new one, and should not support anything else. So if you find that it does something else, it was by mistake

The plugins install itself into the Editor tab menu, and also allow you to register a shortcut for it's actions that by default are empty.

- Open the file under the package directory named lazsplitview.lpk
- At the new opened window, press on compile to make sure that the source can be build. Then choose "Install".
- You'll be prompt for a question if you wish to build it now, answer "yes"
