PCP is short for Primary Config Path is a Lazarus command-line option which permits to specify the directory where Lazarus configuration files are located.
For example, a Linux launcher link (.desktop file) may contain a line like:
Exec=/P/s/lazarus/lazarus --pcp="/P/s/config_lazarus"
which tells Lazarus to look for its configuration in the folder:
/P/s/config_lazarus
The --pcp option is most useful when using multiple Lazarus: it is needed to keep their configurations properly separated.
Windows
If option --pcp is not specified, the default folder in Windows Vista and up is:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\lazarus
Linux
For Linux (and other Unix-like systems) the default configuration folder is:
~\.lazarus
