[fpc-pascal] Where can I find working code for xidel and dependencies

that is here: github.com/bero1985/pasdblstrutils

Download src/PasDblStrUtils.pas. Do not clone the repository when you 
have a slow internet connection


It only became a dependency last week. You could look at the last 
internettools commits and undo them


And you will also need FLRE, which has a fork here: github.com/benibela/flre

Linux also requires Synapse

Do not use those, they are 3 years old

The recent builds are: at 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/videlibri/files/Xidel/Xidel%20development/


Best,
