 ! Small troubleshoot:
 _____________________

    The internal Delphi component TListBox based on standard Windows object
    and work very slowly. I'm lazy to write a new component, so,
    for increase the speed of work, I have corrected standard component.
    Therefore, sometimes, there can be an incomplete redrawing Log-window.
    I think that speed of work more important than some small inconveniences.
