Hi,

i really dislike the free click anywhere and type features of Borland
and now Lazarus IDE (in any notepad/ide, you have to enter the
necessary amount of tab/space to increment your code, you can't click
on column 8 and begin to type as an example).

Is there a possibility to deactivate this functionality in Lazarus ?

Thanks.

Edit : The 3 box to fill in are really anoying, i won't post a lot
there...

Open the options dilogs from the menu "Tools\Options" select the
"Editor\General" leaf on the tree on the left, uncheck the option with
title "Caret past end of line". That should do it for you.

That's an anti spam device. It's not uncommon on forums. Blame the
spammers.

It goes away after five posts.

@Rails : I've never met a forum where there's 3 captcha to answer for
just a single post. I fully agree to fight against spammer, but here,
it's hard ! Edit : Ok, i will post 4 posts and it will be fine, it's
cool ! Thanks for your answer too
