I am trying to write an image indexing/filing application using Free
Pascal v1.0.4-1 together with Postgresql and the Forms library v0.89.

I have managed to blunder my way as far as being able to store images
in the Postgres database and I would now like to try retieving stored
images and displaying them.

I am using the Forms library because it has FDesign and will produce
Pascal code which Glade/GTK won't do. I don't understand C!

I have looked through the Forms documentation and it does have a
section on images but it mentions an FL_IMAGE type which the Free
Pascal Forms library seems to omit.

Could anyone please tell me if (how) I can display images using the
Free Pascal Forms library?
