Sorry, I mean the shortcut on desktop or home dir. The parameters are the
fpcup parameters used to do all the nice work and that finishes with the
creation of the mentioned shortcut. So, the alternative to storing config
parameters somewhere is the suggestion to not create one but 2 shortcuts.
The first launches lazarus and the second launches fpcup with the same
parameters that were used to create these links. Example: a side by side
installation of lazarus fpc 2.6.1 and lazarus fpc 2.7.1 gives 4 shortcuts,
lazarus2.6.1 , lazarus2.6.1(Update), lazarus2.7.1 and lazarus2.7.1(Update).
