[fpc-pascal] fpGUI Toolkit v0.7-rc1 for FPC 2.4

[Jorge Aldo G. de F. Junior]

whats the status of its integration with directfb ?

im working on a INIT replacement for linux (based on xml files) and i
was thinking about a DirectFB/fpGUI user shell (Something quite simple
and light, for use on routers and other kind of network stuff where X
is overkill)
