LMD IDE-Tools is collection of native VCL components which help you to set up a complete IDE environment in a quick and easy way. Extend your applications by providing your customers enhanced possibilities - either by custom scripts or even complete dialogs or additional forms.

Besides that LMD IDE-Tools adds an additional integration package which combines the abilities and features of the standalone packages and adds high level features like IDE services (component palette, IDE manager, synchronizing services), project manager tools (handling of different documents, project view), advanced designing features (alignment palette, support for component editors, object/component view) and so on. An example IDE project (supporting the script languages included in LMD ScriptPack) is shipped with the complete package which demonstrates how to set up a complete IDE project.

DCPcrypt is an open source library of cryptographic components (encryption algorithms and hash algorithms) for Borland Delphi and Kylix (it also works under some versions of C++ Builder). I haven’t been able to update it for quite a long time now but it still works quite happily with Delphi 4, 5, 6, 7 and 2005 and Kylix 1 and 2 (it might work under Kylix 3, but I don’t have a copy to try it out on). The current version (v2 beta 3) is considered to be stable and for all intents and purposes is the final release before I revamp everything.
