Hi, you can get the binaries for linux here:

https://c.gmx.com/@558129942915716568/0R9q_SMSTk6gasfHg-8aNA

Note that at this point I'm pretty sure (96%) that I won't come 
back.
Add to this conviction the fact that I've been contacted for a 
resell of the project and that I had no active projects in D 
anymore, so I won't restart working on this neither give support 
about the project (from the "how it's made" POV. If it's sold 
I'll probably furnish a document about the internals), now that I 
realize it probably has value.

It should just be good for some time if you update the dparse sub 
repository when grammar changes, and then rebuild "dastworx", 
because at some point new features will lead to false errors in 
the "symbol list" otherwise. I've seen that new features implying 
grammar changes may come (named args..., string interpolation, 
...)

docking issues come from the Lazarus component library so they 
have to be fixed in the component that is used (AnchorDocking), 
good luck with that ;)
