Perhaps something needs to be enabled in the settings, but I did not find it.

See examples:

> **[test-pas-files/DirBox.pas at master](https://try.gitea.io/virtpas/test-pas-files/src/branch/master/DirBox.pas)**
>
> test-pas-files

> **[test-pas-files/DirBox.dfm at master](https://try.gitea.io/virtpas/test-pas-files/src/branch/master/DirBox.dfm)**
>
> test-pas-files

Please, help!
