Should GPC allow passing the filename to Rewrite/Reset as the second parameter, rather than calling Assign prior to the call to Rewrite/Reset? (several Pascal compilers outside the Borland family have this feature).
Currrently, the the program below compiles correctly, but at run-time it stops with the error message
?GPC runtime error: (gpc-rts) Internal file namei wrong (#700)
program Test;
var F : Text;
begin Rewrite (F, 'test.out'); Writeln (F, 'This is a test ....'); Close (F); end.
