Synedit CVS source code cannot be compiled under Delphi 7 pro.

The Fix can  be downloaded from
www.geocities.com/gerardusf/d7_CVS_Synedit_Fix.zip

Please update the CVS with the fix.

Problem 1:
synedit.inc is outdated. Does not detect Delphi 7. Only up to Delphi 6.
Solution:
Updated with 'new' synedit.inc from synedit.sourceforce.net CVS
Included in the zip file

Problem 2:
No Delphi 7 compatible package for synedit
Solution:
Delphi 7 package included in the zip file
unzip it under /synedit/package

Problem 3:
Unclear for first time user how to build from the source.
Solution:
Building_from_the_source.txt give some basic step how to install the extra component needed before compiling the IDE.
Permission to edit this file, my English is not so good ;-)
Is included in the zip file
Unzip it to the root directory \V5

Problem 4:
\synedit\package\Synedit_D6.pkg does not work at all.
Under Delphi 6 pro.
This will create confusion!
Solution:
Remove it from the CVS.
Must use the Synedit_D6_PE.dpk instead.

Thanks
