I'm not claiming that I've got the solution, but in order to get a bit
more attention I suggest telling us what version of FPC and/or Lazarus
you're using, what OS you're using, where you got the project you're
trying to compile, what your command line was etc. Oh, and please
double-check that error message :-)

GTKPas is not a standard Free Pascal library; you'll have to either
download and compile it for yourself, which I do not recommend, or try
to modify GLWaves to use the standard LCL, which should be preferred.

IMPORTANT!
Note that you're trying to compile an almost 20 years old code base:
things have changed quite a lot in the meantime. If you're really
interested you should try to modernize the application as much as
possible.

Note also that probably much of such old code will not even compile
adequately with a modern FPC or, if compiled, not work as intended due
to the (oftentimes "breaking") changes introduced in the compiler and
standard libraries along the years.

Or find something more up to date to play with :-)

@Lucamar, thanks for stepping in, I mainly commented to try to stop
the message falling off the bottom of the "Recent" pane before
somebody who knew what he was talking about spotted it.
