AG: i.e. with project->add unit ?

AG: From which (search) paths, have a few tunables ?

AG: That is all fine, but the full control ability (of search process)
interested to me !

=====================
and last
A have construct a quite simple sample, that demonstrates
FPC231<=>Lazarus lacks.
It is only simplified exposition of #10176 issue. I will bring new
issue, as soon as
manits will available. As was supposed by me, the presence of my own
form ancestor
is essential to "unit-read-error" revealing (the IDE-old-bor'ity :) )
A think, that discuss subject "Must IDE editor be such intelligent
(in syntax comprehension sense) as compiler, or syntax highlighting is
enough ?"
would be useful.
What thoughts developers respected about this ?
